Tyler Fredrickson (born February 26, 1981) is a former American football placekicker, and TV personality. He played in the NFL for the Washington Redskins and Oakland Raiders in 3 preseason games during the 2007 season but was cut on September 2 before the start of the regular season. While with Oakland, he connected on a 49-yard field goal versus the Arizona Cardinals and handled all punting and placekicking duties during the team's final preseason game against the Seattle Seahawks (avg. 49 yds on 5 punts).

He signed a three-year deal (to have kept him in Los Angeles through the 2010 season) with the Los Angeles Avengers of the Arena Football League on April 24, midway through the 2008 season. He played in their final eight games.

In early 2015, he was a contestant on the 30th season of the reality show Survivor. He was eliminated in seventh place.

Born to parents Mark Fredrickson and Mimi Lessett, Fredrickson attended Dos Pueblos High School in Goleta, California, where he played both football and soccer. As a senior, he was named second team All-CIF Southern Section punter as a senior. As a placekicker, once booted three field goals, including the game-winner with four seconds left, to beat Cabrillo High School, 9-7. As a soccer player, he was a four-time all-league performer.

At the University of California, Berkeley, Fredrickson was the Golden Bears’ starting punter for three seasons and doubled as the placekicker as a senior in 2003. Fredrickson punted 198 times for Cal, averaging 39.4 yards per boot. While handling the placekicking duties, he converted on attempts from 51 and 53 yards out, registering the third and fifth-longest field goals in Golden Bear history.
