Christopher William Dalman (born March 15, 1970) is a former professional American football player who played offensive lineman for seven seasons for the San Francisco 49ers (1993–2000).
Early life and college career
He was an offensive/defensive tackle for Palma High School in Salinas, and was a four-year football letter-winner at Stanford University. Dalman is notable in that he is one of the few players to successfully undergo spinal fusion and return to the playing field, having undergone the surgery between his sophomore and junior years at Stanford.[1] While an undergraduate at Stanford he became a member of Delta Tau Delta International Fraternity.[2]
Professional playing career
Drafted in the sixth round (166th overall) in the 1993 NFL draft by the San Francisco 49ers, Dalman started 64 games in seven seasons with the 49ers.[3] He first started all 16 regular season games in 1996.[4]
Coaching career
After playing in the National Football League, he went back to Palma in 2001 to become an assistant football coach and English teacher.[5] After a stint as the assistant offensive line coach for the Atlanta Falcons from 2005 to 2006, he became the offensive line coach and running game coordinator at Stanford until resigning in January 2009 to become varsity offensive line coach at Palma and the Director of Admissions.[6]
