Matt Salter (born 2 December 1976 in Greenwich, London) is an English retired rugby union and professional rugby league footballer of the 1990s and 2000s. He played for Bristol in the Guinness Premiership. He primarily played as a flanker or in the second row.

He played for London Broncos in the European Super League, and was in the starting line-up (as a prop forward) for them in the 1999 Rugby League Challenge Cup Final, led out by the club backer at the time, Richard Branson. Although Broncos started well, the greater experience of the Leeds Rhinos eventually resulted in a record 52-16 victory for the northern team.

Following his retirement from professional rugby, Salter became the Director of Rugby (union) at the University of Bristol.
