Guy Frazier (born in Detroit, Michigan) is a former American football linebacker in the National Football League who played for the Cincinnati Bengals (1981-1984) and the Buffalo Bills (1985-1986). He graduated from Detroit Cass Technical High School in 1977 and played college football at the University of Wyoming. He was drafted in the fourth round of the 1981 NFL Draft by the Bengals and returned to Detroit in 1982 as a rookie year member of the Cincinnati Bengals Super Bowl XVI team. Frazier made the first hit of the game against the San Francisco 49ers on the opening kickoff causing a fumble that was recovered by teammate John Simmons. That was the first time in Super Bowl history that a turnover occurred on the opening kickoff. Unfortunately Frazier's team was unable to capitalize on the turnover and subsequently lost.

Frazier is the father of current NFL linebacker Andre Frazier.
