Terrence Bernard Cody, Jr. (born June 28, 1988) is an American football nose tackle for the Baltimore Ravens of the National Football League (NFL). He played college football for the University of Alabama, where he was given the nickname "Mount Cody" for his 360-pound frame. He was selected by the Baltimore Ravens in the second round of the 2010 NFL Draft.

A native of Florida, Cody spent two seasons at Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College, where he helped the Bulldogs to an unbeaten season in 2007. Surprisingly nimble even at a peak weight of more than 400 pounds (180 kg), Cody drew the attention of major Division I programs. He finished his collegiate career at Alabama, where he earned consensus All-American honors twice while anchoring one of college football's best defenses during the 2008 and 2009 seasons. During his senior season with the Alabama Crimson Tide in 2009, he helped lead the Tide to an undefeated 14-0 season including a victory in the 2010 BCS National Championship Game.
