Shea Brian Morenz (born birth date|1974|1|22 in Denville, New Jersey) is a former American football and baseball player.

Coming out of San Angelo Central High in 1992, Morenz was one of the top high school quarterbacks in the nation. However, he was never able to fulfill the expectations. After being injured during the Texas-Oklahoma game in 1994, Morenz lost his starting job to James Brown who remained the starter for the rest of the season. Morenz also played baseball and left the University of Texas after being drafted by the New York Yankees in the first round (27th overall) of the Amateur Draft in 1995. He reached as high as Triple A for the San Diego Padres organization in 1998, but failed to play in the Majors. His baseball career ended after the 1999 season after playing in Double A ball for the Padres. Shea Morenz may be a distant relative of hockey great Howie Morenz, but is not his grandson as often erroneously reported.
