Jason Roe (born 13 March 1984) is an indigenous and former Australian rules football player for the Brisbane Lions in the Australian Football League (AFL).
Originally playing for Nightcliff Football Club, then the Cairns City Cobras in the 2001–2002 seasons, Roe was selected in the draft by the Collingwood Football Club and placed on its rookie list. He was delisted in 2003 having not played an AFL game, and moved to North Adelaide.
He was then given a second chance at AFL level and placed on the Brisbane Lions rookie list in the 2006 Rookie Draft.
After the 2009 season, Roe was delisted by the lions after playing only eight games in 2009 and not impressing the coaches or fans by making many errors on the last line of defence including many dropped marks that resulted in goals and momentum swings towards the other team.
He played his 50th and final AFL game in 2009.
