Neil Briggs (born 1 June 1985 in Germany) is a rugby union player for Sale Sharks in the Aviva Premiership.

Briggs plays as a Hooker, but he can also play as a Flanker as he has done on numerous occasions for the Sharks.

Briggs made his debut for the England Saxons against the Argentina Jaguars at the 2009 Churchill Cup.[2]

After James Gaskell was injured in October 2010, Briggs was appointed Sale's captain for the remainder of the season.[3] In turn, Briggs too succumbed to injury a month into his tenure as captain. The shoulder injury – which was sustained in a practise session when Briggs was tackled by Neil McMillan – sidelined him for up to three months.[4]
