Dwight Eugene Garner is a former American football running back. He played college football at California and had a brief stint as a kick returner for the Washington Redskins of the National Football League during the 1986 season. Garner is best known for his participation in The Play during the Big Game on November 20, 1982, while he was at Cal, in which he made the third of five Cal lateral passes on a kickoff return to score a game-winning touchdown over Stanford. Garner's pass, as well as the final lateral pass of The Play, have been heavily scrutinized over whether they were legal; Garner made his pass while being tackled by several Stanford players, who maintain that Garner's knee touched the ground before he passed the ball, thereby ending the play at that point.
