Kerry August Justin (born May 3, 1955) is an American former professional football player who was a cornerback in the National Football League (NFL).

Justin was born in New Orleans, Louisiana and attended Crenshaw High School in Los Angeles, California.[1][2] He played college football at Oregon State.[1][2]

Justin was signed by the Seattle Seahawks as an undrafted free agent in 1978.[2] He spent six seasons with the Seahawks, 1978–1983, before jumping to the United States Football League with the New Jersey Generals.[3] He was with the Generals for two campaigns, 1984–1985, recording 8 interceptions in the second year.[4] When the USFL folded following the 1985 season, Justin returned to the Seahawks for two more years, 1986–1987.[1]

In eight seasons with the Seahawks, he had seven interceptions returned for 31 yards and three blocked punts which remains a team record.[citation needed]
