Jarrad Waite (born 4 February 1983) is an Australian rules footballer in the Australian Football League.

He was recruited as the number 46 draft pick in the 2001 AFL Draft from Benalla under the father-son selection rule (he is the son of former Carlton player Vin Waite.) He made his debut for Carlton in Round 1, 2003 against the Sydney Swans.

Waite has made his stance in the AFL as a very prominent forward. He kicked 36 goals in the 2005 season, finishing second behind Brendan Fevola for the club. He is expected to be a future star for Carlton, however he has been struck down by recurring injuries so far in his career.

Waite was shifted from the forward-line into the back-line through the NAB Cup and early rounds of 2007, in which he was among the best players on the ground playing at centre half-back. However, he again played predominately as a forward, and showed enormous advances in his football intelligence with difficult assists. Despite this, Waite looks set to return to the back-line in 2008 under new coach Brett Ratten.

Waite was Carlton's acting captain against Fremantle Dockers in Round 13, 2007 in the absence of regular captain Lance Whitnall and vice-captain Nick Stevens.
