Timothy David Harris (born September 10, 1964 Birmingham, Alabama) is a former American Football linebacker who played for the Green Bay Packers (1986-1990), San Francisco 49ers (1991-1992, 1994-1995), and the Philadelphia Eagles (1993). He played college football at the University of Memphis and was selected by the Packers in the 4th round of the 1986 NFL Draft.

Harris was a key defensive player for a Packers team that finished 10-6 during the 1989 season, their best record since 1972. The team was referred to the "Cardiac Pack" because of several close games wins. Harris finished that season with a career best 19.5 sacks and was selected to the Pro Bowl.
