Troy Stark (January 2, 1973 - June 1, 2001) was an American football offensive lineman. He was originally signed by the Green Bay Packers as an undrafted free agent in 1996, and was traded to the New York Jets before the regular season began. He played two seasons for the Jets and was released after training camp in 1998. He then played for the New York/New Jersey Hitmen of the XFL in 2001.
Stark died on June 1, 2001, due to complications from a blood clot following knee surgery. The blood clot was thought to have jarred loose during intense physical therapy and it then travelled to his lungs. He was survived by one-year-old twin boys upon his death.
