Ralph Eugene Neely (born September 12, 1943 in Little Rock, Arkansas) is a former American football offensive tackle who played 13 seasons and 172 games for the Dallas Cowboys from 1965 to 1977.

Neely played college football at the University of Oklahoma under coaches Bud Wilkinson and Gomer Jones and was an All-American his senior year. He was one of three Sooner stars who missed the 1965 Gator Bowl game against Florida State. Supposedly, Neely, fullback Jim Grisham and halfback Lance Rentzel all signed on with professional agents before the game and were ruled ineligible for the contest, which Florida State won 36-19 on the strength of four touchdown catches by Fred Biletnikoff. Neely was drafted in the second round of the 1965 NFL Draft by the Baltimore Colts, who soon after traded his rights to the Cowboys. Neely was a two-time Pro Bowler in 1967 and 1969 and was an All-Pro four times.

He was selected to the NFL 1960s All-Decade Team.
