Christopher Jerrod Hinton (born July 31, 1961) is an American former professional football player who was an offensive tackle for 13 seasons in the National Football League (NFL), primarily with the Indianapolis Colts franchise. In addition to his seven seasons with the Colts, he was a member of the Atlanta Falcons for four seasons and the Minnesota Vikings for two seasons.

Hinton played college football for the Northwestern Wildcats. He was selected fourth overall by the Denver Broncos in the 1983 NFL draft and was traded to the Colts as part of a deal for the Broncos to receive Colts' pick John Elway. Although Hinton noted that his career was often overshadowed by his role in Elway's trade, his own NFL tenure saw him named to seven Pro Bowls and recognized as a two-time first-team All-Pro. He was inducted to the Indianapolis Colts Ring of Honor in 2001.
