Colin Holmes is an Irish former Gaelic footballer who played for the Tyrone county team. He was on the Tyrone panel for their first-ever All-Ireland Senior Football Championship win in 2003 and repeated the feat in 2005, appearing as a substitute in both finals. He also starred in midfield in the 2008 final, starting the move that ended in Brian Dooher's now infamous point.
