Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox gridiron football person William Eugene Bishop (May 8, 1931 – May 14, 1998) was an American football defensive lineman who played 10 seasons in the National Football League (NFL).

A former United States Air Force member, he played college football at North Texas State from 1949 to 1951. Much of his pro career was spent with the Chicago Bears; although he was drafted by the Pittsburgh Steelers, he was traded to Chicago shortly after.[1] He spent nine seasons with the Bears, remaining close with his teammates but frequently clashing with coach George Halas for salary reasons; in 1960, Bishop remarked, "Halas brainwashes you so much you don't want to play with anybody else; it's like playing for the New York Yankees."[2] Bishop later became team captain of the inaugural Minnesota Vikings in 1961.[1]

In the early 1970s, he coached the Winfield Giants Pop Warner team in Winfield, Illinois.
