Inertia is the tendency of an object at rest to remain at rest. The person being tackled, if he is stationary then tries to move out of the way but is unable to, would be demonstrating the principle of inertia. The person doing the tackling would be demonstrating the principle of momentum - the tendency of an object in motion to remain in motion and following the same vector.
A simpler example of inertia would be trying to move a boulder that is sitting in your yard. The boulder is very heavy, and at rest, and trying to get it moving is very difficult because of the inertia.

Yes, tackling in football is an example of inertia of motion. Inertia is the resistance of an object to changes in its motion. When a player is running and gets tackled, their body wants to continue moving forward due to inertia. The force of the tackle must overcome this inertia to stop or change the player's motion.
