Michael Dean Perry (born August 27, 1965 in Aiken, South Carolina) is a former American football defensive lineman and the younger brother of William Perry. He played football at Clemson University and set the school record of 28 sacks (tied by defensive end Gaines Adams in 2006)[1]. He was later drafted by the Cleveland Browns in the second round of the 1988 NFL Draft. He played in the Pro Bowl 6 times and played for the Browns, the Denver Broncos, and the Kansas City Chiefs over his 10-year career.

Michael Dean Perry was one of the more televised players in Cleveland during his stay with the Browns. He also at one time had a McDonald's sandwich named in his honor. The sandwich was named the "MDP". The "MDP" was only available in the Metro Cleveland area. The sandwich at the time was larger than any offering made by McDonald's. It consisted of mostly the same ingredients as Big Mac, but it boasted three meat patties instead of the usual two and was topped with bacon.[2]
