John Joe Sheehan (6 May 1929 – 16 June 2020) was an Irish Gaelic footballer.
Born in Farranfore, Sheehan first enjoyed success when, in 1946 and still a schoolboy, he won a Kerry County Championship medal with Killarney Legion and an All-Ireland Minor Championship with the Kerry minor football team.
While training to be a teacher at St. Patrick's College he was selected for the Dublin senior football team but declared for Kerry and made his debut in the first round of the 1949-50 league.
Sheehan captained Kerry to the Munster Championship title in 1951, before a spinal injury ruled him out of the game before a comeback which saw him win two All-Ireland Championship medals from three final appearances between 1953 and 1955.
He was also selected for the Munster inter-provincial team on a number of occasions.
