Derrick Kingston Hatchett (born August 14, 1958) is an American former professional football player who was a cornerback in the National Football League (NFL). He was a member of the Baltimore Colts from 1980 to 1983 and the Houston Oilers in 1983. He was released from the Colts and later signed with the Oilers after stating that he was punched by head coach Frank Kush, which the coach denied and threatened to sue in response.[1]
