Brett Johnson (born October 28, 1981) is an Australian rules footballer with the Williamstown Football Club of the Victorian Football League.
A midfielder, Johnson was selected in the 1999 AFL Draft at pick #23. He was recruited to Hawthorn where he spent 4 seasons from 2000-2003 before being traded to Carlton for pick #51 (Matthew Ball). He spent a lot of time at the Hawks playing in the reserves (the Box Hill Hawks), but Carlton's willingness to give recycled players another chance to resurrect their careers saw Johnson join the Blues.
He spent two more seasons at Carlton before being cut at the end of the 2005 season. He was another in the long list of recycled players at the Blues not to have a significant impact.
