Jed Adcock (born 15 November 1985) is an Australian rules footballer in the Australian Football League. He currently plays for the Brisbane Lions Football Club in Brisbane, Australia.

He was recruited as the number 33 draft pick in the 2003 AFL Draft from North Ballarat. He made his debut for the Brisbane Lions in Round 7, 2004 against North Melbourne.

Adcock has been played mainly as a small defender where his "hard at it" style of play and willingness to put his body on the line have become part of his game. Adcock has hinted that he would like to work his way into the Lions' midfield, a feat he achieved throughout parts of the 2007 season. He played all 22 games in the 2007 AFL season for the Brisbane Lions, scoring a total of 10 goals, including 4 in a 93 point win against Collingwood in round 17. Adcock was named in the preliminary 2007 All-Australian 40 man squad, but was not named in the official team.

In Round 1 of the 2008 Premiership Season, Adcock suffered a lower leg injury early in the first quarter and did not take further part in the match. Despite the injury, Adcock returned the following week and kicked the match winning goal in the Lions' thrilling two point win over Collingwood at The Gabba.
