Charles Louis Trippi (born December 14, 1922, in Pittston, Pennsylvania) was a professional American football player for the Chicago Cardinals. He was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1968.

Trippi was a two-time All-American from the University of Georgia and a big part in the battling between the NFL and AAFC. The AAFC's New York Yankees were sure they had signed Trippi, but Charles W. Bidwill Sr. of the Cardinals signed Trippi to a four year contract worth $100,000.

Trippi played as a left halfback for four seasons and then a quarterback for two. In 1954 and 1955 he was with the defensive unit and was a punter and returned kickoffs and punts as well.
