Everett Mills (January 20, 1845 – June 22, 1908) was an American amateur and professional baseball player from Newark, New Jersey. He played in all five seasons of the National Association (1871–1875), and one season in the National League (1876). He played every one of his major-league games at first base save for one game in center field. In 1872, he became player-manager for the final 17 games of the season while a member of the Baltimore Canaries. The team finished in second place, and he would never manage again.

Mills died in his hometown of Newark at the age of 63, and was buried at Fairmount Cemetery.
