Tony Scullion (Irish: Antóin Ó Scolláin) is a former Gaelic footballer for the Derry senior football team. He won an All-Ireland Senior Football Championship medal in 1993 with Derry and played club football with Ballinascreen.

He played most of his Derry career at full-back and is regarded as one of the best full-backs of his generation.

Scullion (like Derry clubmate Anthony Tohill) won four GAA All Stars Awards, in 1987, 1992, 1993 and 1995 (despite Derry only playing two games that year).
