Bruce Frederick Cummings,[1] (March 1927 – June 16, 1991) was an all-star and Grey Cup champion Canadian football player with the Ottawa Rough Riders, playing from 1950 to 53.[2][3]

Born in Ottawa and a star football player at the University of Toronto,[4] Cummings joined his hometown Riders in 1950. Though his career was relatively brief, he enjoyed a complete season in 1951, being named an all-star, winning the Jeff Russel Memorial Trophy as the best player in the Interprovincial Rugby Football Union and hoisting the Grey Cup as champion.[5][6]

His father, W. Garfield Cummings, was a local politician and former Ottawa footballer.[7] Bruce Cummings died at the age of 64 in 1991 following a heart attack.[8][9]
