Tyronne Kevin Stowe (born May 30, 1965) is an American former professional football player who was a linebacker for nine seasons in the National Football League (NFL).

Stowe was born and raised in Passaic, New Jersey and played scholastically at Passaic High School.[1] He played college football at Rutgers University,[2][3] where he was honored by Football News as a third-team All-American as a senior.[4]

Stowe signed with the San Diego Chargers as an undrafted free agent, but was cut at the end of the preseason.[5] He then joined the Pittsburgh Steelers as a replacement player during the 1987 NFLPA strike.[5]

After the strike, the Steelers added him to their regular-season roster, and he remained with them for four years (1987-1990). He followed that with three seasons for the Phoenix Cardinals (1991-1993), and finished his career with stints in Washington (1994) and Seattle (1995-1996).[6] He spent the 1996 season on the injured reserve list.

As of 2007, Stowe was working as a pastor in Chandler, Arizona.[7]
