Richmond McDavid Flowers Jr. (born June 13, 1947) is an American former professional football player who was a safety in the National Football League (NFL) for the Dallas Cowboys and New York Giants. He played college football for the Tennessee Volunteers and was selected in the second round of the 1969 NFL/AFL draft. He was also a track All-American in college.

Flowers participated in track and field primarily as a hurdler, specializing in the 110-meter high hurdles. After capturing the NCAA championship in the event in 1968, he was a leading contender to win the gold medal at the 1968 Summer Olympics before suffering a hamstring injury just prior to the Olympic trials. He set several records during his career.

He was the son of Richmond Flowers Sr., an anti-segregationist who served a tumultuous term as Alabama's attorney general in the 1960s.
