Warren Carlos Sapp (Orlando, 19 dicembre 1972) è un ex giocatore di football americano statunitense nel ruolo di defensive tackle nella National Football League (NFL) per tredici stagioni. Giocò a football al college per gli University of Miami Hurricanes, con cui fu selezionato come All-American vincendo numerosi premi. Fu scelto dai Tampa Bay Buccaneers nel Draft NFL 1995 come 12º scelta assoluta e giocò da professionista coi Buccaneers e gli Oakland Raiders. Trascorse nove stagioni a Tampa Bay, guadagnandosi 7 convocazioni per il Pro Bowl ed un anello del Super Bowl nel 2002. Si trasferì ai Raiders nel 2004. Sapp fu inserito nella Pro Football Hall of Fame nel 2013 nel suo primo anno di eleggibilità. L'11 novembre 2013 divenne solamente il secondo giocatore della storia dei Buccaneers a cui fu concesso l'onore del ritiro del numero di maglia, il 99.
I suoi 96,5 sack in carriera (100 contando i playoff) sono il secondo massimo in carriera per un defensive tackle e la 28ª prestazione totale per un uomo della linea difensiva. I suoi 77 sack coi Buccaneers sono il secondo risultato nella storia della franchigia.
Durante la sua carriera, Sapp fu fonte di alcune controversie a causa del suo stile di gioco violento e delle sue uscite verbali, sia sul campo che fuori. Alcune di queste occasioni finirono con multe da parte della NFL ed una volta fu espulso dal campo di gioco per condotta anti-sportiva.
