Thomas William Bettis (March 17, 1933 – February 28, 2015) was an American professional football player and coach in the National Football League (NFL). He played for nine seasons as a linebacker. Bettis played college football for the Purdue Boilermakers, earning first-team All-American honors in 1954. He was selected by the Green Bay Packers in the first round of the 1955 NFL draft with the fifth overall pick. He played nine seasons for the Packers, the Pittsburgh Steelers, and the Chicago Bears. After his playing career, Bettis went on to coach in the NFL for 30 years, including for the 1969–70 Super Bowl IV champions and the 1966–67 AFL champions, the Kansas City Chiefs.
