Lawrence Phillips, born on May 12, 1975 in Little Rock, Arkansas, is a former American football and Canadian football running back who has had numerous conflicts with law enforcement.

Phillips played college football at Nebraska and was drafted sixth overall in the 1996 NFL draft by the St. Louis Rams. Phillips played the 1996 and part of the 1997 seasons with the Rams before refusing to show for a team meeting and practice in a dispute with coach Dick Vermeil over playing time and being cut; Phillips moved on to the Miami Dolphins for two games before being cut again after pleading no contest to assaulting a woman in a nightclub. Phillips missed the 1998 season before attempting a comeback in 1999; he set NFL Europe offensive records with the Barcelona Dragons before returning stateside with the San Francisco 49ers, but was unable to last the whole season.

Phillips then moved on to Canada, winning the Grey Cup in 2002 with the Montreal Alouettes; cut in training camp for insubordination by Montreal in 2003, he signed with the Calgary Stampeders but was again released for arguing with his coach.

On August 21, 2005, he was arrested for driving a stolen car into three teenagers, while a fugitive for domestic abuse, after getting involved in a dispute with the teens during a pick-up football game in Los Angeles.
