John 'Jiggy' Harris (born November 4, 1903) was an Australian rules footballer who played with Collingwood and Hawthorn in the VFL.
Recruited from Brighton, Harris started his career at Collingwood where he played as both a wingman and half forward flanker. He was a member of Collingwood premiership sides in 1927 and 1928. After being dropped for the 1929 Grand Final, thus missing out on a third successive premiership, Harris left Collingwood and joined Hawthorn as captain-coach. He spent two seasons with Hawthorn before joining VFA club Coburg where he played in a losing grand final in 1933.
