Gerald McNeil (born March 27, 1962 in Frankfurt, Germany) is a former professional American football player. He was a wide receiver who often returned punts and kickoffs. McNeil's small stature of 5 ft 7 in (1.70 m) and 145 lb (65.8 kg) made him difficult to grab hold of and tackle and led to his nickname "The Ice Cube". McNeil attended Baylor University, where he set several reception records.
