Robert Dale Fenimore (October 6, 1925[1] – July 28, 2010), nicknamed "the Blonde Bomber" and "Blonde Blizzard", was an American football halfback who played in the National Football League (NFL) for one season with the Chicago Bears in 1947. He played college football for the Oklahoma A&M Cowboys and was selected first overall by the Bears in the 1947 NFL Draft.

He was member of the 1945 national champion Oklahoma A&M team. He was the first twice All-American selection from Oklahoma A&M and finished third in the Heisman Trophy voting in 1945, but still led the nation in rushing with 142 carries for 1,048 yards.
