Jace Jordan Amaro (born June 26, 1992) is an American former professional football player who was a tight end in the National Football League (NFL). He played college football for the Texas Tech Red Raiders, earning unanimous All-American honors in 2013. He was selected by the New York Jets in the second round of the 2014 NFL draft.
Amaro spent most of his rookie season with the Jets in 2014 as a backup before missing the entire 2015 season to injury, leading to his release prior to the 2016 season. He was then acquired by the Tennessee Titans, but only played in three games in 2016 before being released prior to the 2017 regular season. After an offseason stint with the Kansas City Chiefs in 2018, Amaro spent a year away from football before being drafted by the Seattle Dragons of the XFL in 2020, but never signed with the team.
