Tyrone Poole, (born February 3, 1972 in La Grange, Georgia), is an American football cornerback for the Oakland Raiders of the National Football League.

Poole was selected by the Carolina Panthers in the first round (22nd overall) of the 1995 NFL Draft out of Fort Valley State University. He spent three years anchoring the Panthers' secondary before being traded to the Indianapolis Colts in 1998. He played three years for the Colts, starting almost every game, before signing with the Denver Broncos as a free agent. However, he spent the entire 2000 NFL season on the reserve squad. He returned to full-time play for 2001, but left Denver and signed with New England before the 2002 NFL season. Poole was part of the dominating Patriots defense that led them to victory in Super Bowl XXXVIII over, ironically, his former team, the Carolina Panthers. He started the 2004 season before being placed on injured reserve. He signed with the Oakland Raiders in the 2006 offseason.

In his rookie campaign with Carolina, Poole was named to the All-Madden team, as well as several All-Rookie teams.
