Percy Sheehan (born 5 July 1883) was an Australian rules footballer who played with Fitzroy, Carlton and Richmond in the VFL.

Sheehan was a member of Fitzroy premiership teams in his first two seasons. He played in a variety of positions during his career but was used mostly as a half back flanker. In 1910 he left the club and moved to Carlton, finishing the season with a Grand Final loss to Collingwood. The game was full of brawls and Sheehan, who was seen as one of the main instigators, was suspended for a season and a half (28 games). When his suspension ended he returned to the league with Richmond but could only manage four games before retiring.
