Jack P. "Chooka" Howell (born 16 March 1895) was an Australian rules footballer who played with South Melbourne in the VFL. He is the father of Carlton Hall of Famer and premiership player Jack.

Howell was a tireless ruckman who played his first game for South Melbourne in 1915.

The club didn't play in the following season due to the war but he returned to the club in 1917. The 1918 season was his finest and he earned the Champion of the Colony award for his efforts during the season. His final game in the VFL was that year's winning grand final win over Collingwood.

He then joined Footscray who were competing in the VFA. He played for Footscray from 1919 to 1924, moving to Prahran, as captain-coach, in 1925; he was replaced as coach before the end of the season.

Three generations of Grand Final players

He has the distinction of being a member of the only three-generation set of participants in a VFL/AFL Grand Final.

He played for South Melbourne, against Collingwood, in the 1918 Grand Final.

His son, Jack E. "Chooka" Howell played for Carlton, against Essendon, in the 1947 Grand Final.

His grandson, Scott Howell played for Carlton, against Collingwood, in the 1981 VFL Grand Final.
