Joe Jacobson (born 17 November 1986) is a Welsh professional footballer who currently plays as a left-back for Cardiff City. He has played five times for Wales at Under-21 level where he has received a number of good comments and is the current captain of the Cardiff City reserve team.

Jacobson was born in Cardiff and signed professional with his hometown side Cardiff City in July 2006. He made his league debut as a substitute for Chris Barker in Cardiff's Championship defeat at home to Norwich City on 22 April 2006. He made his first start on the 22 August 2006 in Cardiff's surprise defeat at home to League Two side Barnet in the Football League Cup and was voted Man of The Match by the local press.

In November 2006 the Torquay-based newspaper the Herald Express reported that Jacobson was likely to sign for Torquay United on loan, a story backed up by the team's official website. However, the move fell through when Torquay failed to loan Martin Phillips to Exeter City. He joined Accrington Stanley on loan and started their League 2 match away at Grimsby on 25th November, followed by a Johnsons Paint QF tie away at League 1 club Doncaster Rovers on the following Tuesday.
