Malcolm Pratt Snider (April 5, 1947 – February 19, 2022) was an American professional football guard and tackle who played six seasons in the National Football League (NFL).

After graduating from North Salem High School in Salem, Oregon, Snider attended Stanford University, where he was an All-American tackle in 1968.

He was drafted in the third round of the 1969 NFL/AFL draft by the Atlanta Falcons. He played three seasons with the Falcons before being traded to the Green Bay Packers in 1972 where he played three more NFL seasons before retiring.

In 1969, Mal Snider returned a 48 yard kickoff return for a touchdown against the Chicago Bears in a 48-31 win. The record stood for 41 years until Dan Connolly broke the record on December 19, 2010.

While playing football in Wisconsin, Snider attended medical school at the University of Wisconsin part-time, eventually receiving his MD in 1978. He returned to his hometown of Salem where he was a retired orthopedic surgeon.
