Allen Cedric "A.C." Cowlings[1] (born June 16, 1947) is an American former professional football player and actor. He played college football for the USC Trojans before being selected fifth overall in the first round by the Buffalo Bills in the 1970 NFL draft. He was a starter at various defensive positions for the Buffalo Bills, Houston Oilers, Los Angeles Rams, Seattle Seahawks, and the San Francisco 49ers, until retiring after the 1979 season.[2][3]
Cowlings is most famous for his role in aiding his close friend O. J. Simpson in fleeing the police on June 17, 1994, after Simpson was accused of killing his ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ron Goldman. After leading police on a low-speed chase in his now infamous white Ford Bronco, Cowlings drove Simpson back to his home, where he was arrested (not to be confused with OJ's own Ford Bronco, which had traces of the victims' blood and was therefore used as evidence in the trial). Cowlings was also arrested for aiding Simpson, but charges were dropped for lack of evidence.
