Randolph "Randy" Logan (born May 1, 1951) is a former American football player. He played 11 seasons as a free safety in the National Football League (NFL) for the Philadelphia Eagles from 1973 to 1983. He was a second-team All-NFL player in 1980, and his streak of 159 consecutive games is the second longest in Eagles history. Logan played college football at the University of Michigan from 1970 to 1972 where he was selected as a consensus first-team defensive back on the 1972 College Football All-America Team.
Logan was born in Detroit, Michigan, in 1951. He attended Northern High School in Detroit. He was the first football player from his school to win a scholarship to a Big Ten Conference university.
Logan enrolled at the University of Michigan in 1969 and played college football for coach Bo Schembechler's Michigan Wolverines football teams from 1970 to 1972. As a sophomore, he played as a backup at the wingback position and carried the ball six times for 27 yards, an average of 4.5 yards per carry.
As a junior, Logan started 11 games at strong safety for the 1971 Michigan Wolverines football team that gave up only 83 points (6.9 points per game) and finished with an 11-1 record, going undefeated in the regular season before losing to Stanford, 13-12, in the 1972 Rose Bowl. Logan had 63 tackles during the 1971 season, including a career-high 12 tackles in the 1971 season opener against Northwestern.
