Ronnie Keith Harmon (born: May 7, 1964 in Queens, New York), is an American former professional football player. After attending the University of Iowa in the Big Ten Conference, he played for 12 seasons (1986-1997) in the NFL. A 5'11" running back, he was drafted by the Buffalo Bills in the 1st round (16th pick) of the 1986 NFL Draft.
Harmon was better know for his receiving rather than his rushing capabilities, a reputation he earned after committing four fumbles, all of which resulted in turnovers, in a 45-28 loss against UCLA in the 1986 Rose Bowl Game. He also played in Super Bowl XXIX for the San Diego Chargers in their 49-26 loss against the San Francisco 49ers, a game in which he led his team in receiving with 8 receptions for 68 yards. Ronnie's brothers Kevin and Derrick also played in the NFL.
