Cameron John Colvin (born March 5, 1986) is a former American professional football player, who played in the National Football League for the San Francisco 49ers and in the United Football League for the Las Vegas Locomotives.

Colvin was signed to the San Francisco 49ers on April 27, 2008. He earned high praise from the offensive coordinator Mike Martz, who said of him, "He's physical. He uses his speed, and he goes after the ball. I'm very pleased with him. He rarely makes mistakes."
Colvin has been the president of CamCo Commercial Inc., a company incorporated in Nevada, since July 2019.
