Jim Reeder (American football tackle)
James William Reeder (September 5, 1919 – April 18, 1965) was an American football player. He played college football for the Illinois Fighting Illini football team from 1938 to 1939 and was selected by both the All-America Board and the Walter Camp Football Foundation as a first-team tackle on the 1939 College Football All-America Team. He was invited to play in the East–West Shrine Game, but he declined to participate so that he could focus on his studies.
