Jay Lawrence Arnold (September 9, 1912 – April 8, 1982) was a professional American football player who played five seasons in the National Football League (NFL). He played halfback — generally slotted out to the wing as a receiver — and defensive back.
In 1938 Arnold became one of only six NFL players to have a receiving touchdown, a fumble recovery for a touchdown, and an interception return for a touchdown in the same season.
