Jonathan Mark Webb (born 24 August 1963 in London, England) is a former English rugby union footballer who represented England in 33 Test matches. He played for two clubs, first Bristol and then Bath where he played mainly at fullback. His career representing England lasted between 1987 and 1993, and he scored a total of 296 points for his country. He participated in both the 1987 and 1991 Rugby World Cups; in the 1991 World Cup final he kicked England's only points in their 12–6 loss to Australia.

After retiring in 1993 for professional and personal reasons, including the fact he had a young family; Webb focused on his career as an orthopaedic surgeon. In 1997 he was awarded a Research Fellowship by the British Association of Surgery for the Knee, and later undertook a fellowship at the North Sydney Orthopaedic & Sports Medicine Centre in Australia where he worked during the 2000 Summer Olympics. Webb now runs the Jonathan Webb Clinic in Bristol.
