Malcolm Richard "Dick" Wood (February 29, 1936 - April 4, 2015) was an American football quarterback who played at Auburn before being drafted by the NFL Baltimore Colts in 1959. He never played for the Colts, and signed with the American Football League's Denver Broncos as a free agent in 1962. After his player career ended, Wood served as an assistant coach in collegiate football and the NFL for over 4 decades.

Dick played for five different AFL teams during his football career, the only player to do so. He died in Atlanta in 2015.
