Tommy Doyle (born 3 March 1956 in Chicago, Illinois) was an Irish sportsman who played Gaelic football with Annascaul GAA club and the Kerry senior football team in the 1970s and 1980s. He had a brief spell with John Mitchels in the early 1990s. Doyle was an army private at one time, and so had the nickname "Private". He now works as a sales representative and lives in Cork.
Doyle was a member of one of the most successful teams ever to play Gaelic football. He won 7 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship medals with Kerry, and was captain of the team in 1986. He received three consecutive GAA All Stars Awards, in 1984, 1985 and 1986.
