Vincent Eugene Clark (born January 22, 1969 in Cincinnati, Ohio) is a former American football cornerback in the NFL for the Green Bay Packers, Atlanta Falcons, New Orleans Saints, and the Jacksonville Jaguars. He played college football at Ohio State University. Clark later served as an assistant coach for the Arena Football League team the Columbus Destroyers. The Head Coach of the Destroyers at the time was Clark's former teammate at Ohio State, Chris Spielman.

While with Green Bay in 1992, Clark played in the September game that is famously known for being the week that QB Brett Favre made his NFL game debut replacing the injured QB Dan Majikowski. The Packers claimed victory 24-23 in a comeback win over the Bengals at Lambeau Field where Favre threw for two fourth quarter touchdowns to complete the rally.

I saw Vinnie at a football camp in Cincinnati last summer, as always he was a great to talk too. He and I went to the same high school though he graduated about 5 years before me. He was doing well and was coaching high school football.
