Joseph Charles Moss (born April 9, 1930) is an American former coach and player. He played college football at the University of Maryland and professional football in the National Football League with the Washington Redskins. Moss served as head coach for the Toronto Argonauts and Ottawa Rough Riders in the Canadian Football League.

A native of Elkins, West Virginia, Moss played college football at the University of Maryland and was drafted in the fourteenth round of the 1952 NFL Draft by the Los Angeles Rams. He was traded to the Washington Redskins on July 11, 1952 for Nick Bolkovac and a sixth-round draft pick.

After playing one season in the National Football League with the Washington Redskins, Moss joined the United States Air Force and was stationed at Bolling Air Force Base in Washington, D.C. where he played for the base football team. In 1956, Moss became an assistant coach at his alma mater, Maryland. From 1961 to 1968, Moss was Ben Martin's chief assistant at the United States Air Force Academy. From 1969 to 1972 he was the defensive line coach for the Philadelphia Eagles. In 1973, Moss became the Defensive Coordinator for the Toronto Argonauts of the Canadian Football League. Moss was promoted to head coach during the 1974 season after the Argos got off to a 3–4 start. Toronto would go 3–5–1 under Moss and he was replaced as head coach by Russ Jackson, but remained as defensive coordinator.
