Kevin Matthew Burgess (born 8 January 1987) joined Darlington from Middlesbrough during the 2006–07 campaign. After a number of impressive displays in the reserves Burgess made his debut on the final day of the season against Stockport County.

The following season saw Burgess loaned out to Northern Premier League Premier Division Whitby Town, and on his release from Darlington, was promptly signed up by the non-League club's former Quakers' defender Phil Brumwell for the 2008–09 season.

Burgess rejoined Darlington from Whitby Town prior to the 2015/16 season in which he became captain due to previous captain Gary Brown joining Shildon A.F.C.. Burgess kept the captaincy when Brown returned early in the 2015/16 season forming a strong defence together which helped Darlington become champions earning promotion to the Conference North.
