Pedro Sosa (born February 6, 1984) is a former American football offensive tackle for the Hartford Colonials of the defunct United Football League. He was signed by the Miami Dolphins as an undrafted free agent in 2008. He played college football at Rutgers.

Sosa has also been a member of the Las Vegas Locomotives of the UFL.

Pedro Sosa was born February 6, 1984 in Union City, New Jersey, where he attended Union Hill High School, where in his junior year, he played both basketball and football. On the court, he averaged a double-double (12 ppg, 10 rpg). On the football field, he played for head coach Joe Rotundi. In his junior year, he was an All-Hudson County third-team pick, and did not allow a sack in two seasons as a starter. In his senior year, he was rated the best offensive lineman in the state of New Jersey by the McCarthy Report. He was also ranked as the 16th-best player in New Jersey and third-best offensive lineman by Super Prep, and earned first-team All-State honors from The Star-Ledger, The Jersey Journal and the Hudson County Football Coaches Association. He was named the Hudson County Football Coaches Association Offensive Lineman of the Year and was a member of the NJ Super-100 squad. On defense, Sosa recorded 111 tackles and eight sacks in his senior year.

Sosa attended Rutgers University, where he distinguished himself on the football field.

Stepping into the starting lineup as a sophomore, Sosa made an immediate impact for Rutgers at his left tackle position, paving the way with Jeremy Zuttah and Cameron Stephenson for Ray Rice's successful debut as a freshman, the school's first 1000-yard rushing season since 1994. Versus Louisville, Sosa was able to successfully end Elvis Dumervil's sack streak.
