Lloyd "Bronco" Reese (July 17, 1920 – October 28, 1981) was an all-star and Grey Cup champion in the Canadian Football League and a National Football League champion. He was primarily a fullback but also starred on the offensive line.

A graduate of University of Tennessee, Reese joined the Chicago Bears for their 1946 championship season, playing 3 games and rushing 18 times for 84 yards.

In 1948 he joined the Montreal Alouettes where his 251-pound frame made him the biggest fullback in Canadian pro football. Playing a full 12 game season he was selected as an All-Star at guard. In 1949, he played another full sked, helping the Larks to their first ever Grey Cup championship. Reese died on October 28, 1981 in Dover, Ohio.
