Jonathan Paul Losman (born March 12, 1981) is an American football coach and former player. Losman played professionally as a quarterback for seven seasons in the National Football League (NFL), primarily with the Buffalo Bills. He played college football for the Tulane Green Wave and was selected by the Bills in the first round (22nd overall) in the 2004 NFL Draft.

Intended to replace Drew Bledsoe as Buffalo's franchise quarterback, Losman was plagued with inconsistent play, injuries, and consistent coaching turnover during his stint with the team, and he was eventually replaced by Trent Edwards. Losman's Bills career was considered a disappointment due to the fact he was taken in the same round of the draft as Eli Manning, Philip Rivers, and Ben Roethlisberger, who all went on to have successful careers as franchise quarterbacks with their teams.[1]

Upon leaving the Bills, Losman signed with the Las Vegas Locomotives in the upstart United Football League, leading the team to winning the inaugural UFL championship game before finishing out his career with stints with the Oakland Raiders, Seattle Seahawks, and Miami Dolphins.
