Terry Joseph Robiskie (born November 12, 1954) is an American football coach and former player who is the offensive coordinator for the Tennessee Titans of the National Football League (NFL). He previously served as wide receivers coach for the NFL's Atlanta Falcons.

Raised in Lucy, Louisiana, 25 miles (40 km) west of New Orleans, Robiskie went to nearby Second Ward High School in Edgard, Louisiana, where he was a star quarterback. After high school, he went to Louisiana State University, where was converted to a running back for LSU's football team. During his senior year, in 1976, he was named SEC Most Valuable Player and a first-team All-SEC running back. He was the first LSU running back to run for over 200 yards in a single game, gaining 214 yards in 30 attempts against Rice University in 1976. He was also the first LSU running back to run for over 1,000 yards in a season (1976), and the first LSU running back to run for over 2,500 yards in a career (1973–76).

Drafted in the eighth round by the Oakland Raiders, Robiskie spent five years in the NFL as a running back with the Raiders (1977–79) and the Miami Dolphins (1980–81), while playing for legendary coaches John Madden, Tom Flores and Don Shula. He was a role player, gaining only 553 yards in five seasons. Robiskie was forced to retire after only five seasons due to an injury.

He entered the coaching profession with the Los Angeles Raiders in 1982 as the assistant running backs coach where he tutored Marcus Allen to two Pro Bowls and two 1,000-yard seasons. Robiskie was the assistant special teams coach for the Raiders from 1985–87, and he tutored the Raiders tight ends in 1988.
