Cedric Cobbs (born January 9, 1981) is a former American football running back who played for two seasons in the National Football League (NFL) and one season in the af2.

Cobbs attended college at the University of Arkansas, where he played football, starting for four years. He finished his collegiate football career with 3,027 rushing yards, good enough for third place in school history.

Cobbs was also named the Offensive MVP of the Independence Bowl victory over Missouri, 27-14, after rushing 27 times for 141 yards and one touchdown. During his freshman season in 1999, Cobbs set the freshman rushing record at Arkansas, but it has since been broken by former Razorback running back Darren McFadden. Cobbs was named to the SEC All-Freshman team in 1999, and led Arkansas to a 27-06 victory over the Texas Longhorns in the Cotton Bowl on January 1, 2000, in Dallas, Texas, while winning the honor of Offensive MVP.
