Jon Steel is a Scottish rugby league player currently with Super League side Hull KR. He is a former rugby union player who represented his country at youth level before switching codes in 2005. Following Hull KR's promotion, Steel was expected to play a big part in their first Super League season but was unfortunate to suffer a badly broken leg after only a handful of games and was ruled out for most of the year as a result.

Jon Steele a Former scottish RU international holds the tag as the fastest member of the Rovers squad. In speed runs he's often made to start well behind the front runners and still never fails to come home first. Steele has some real pace which can often alone take him past the first man but also has a neat little side step. His claim to fame is taking down the big Rugby Union brute of Jonah Lomu playing for Scotland.

Signed in 2005 from the Borders RU club steely as he is known made a real impact scoring 5 tries away from home against London Skolars. His aim for the season it to help Rovers into S.L while finishing the season as top points scorer. With an extended run in the side I certainly wouldn't bet against it.

He has been named in the Scotland training squad for the 2008 Rugby League World Cup.cite web|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/rugby_league/7587971.stm|title=Henderson trio in Scots cup squad|publisher=BBC|date=2008-08-29|accessdate=2008-10-03]
