Jordan Stone (born March 16, 1984) is an American soccer player, currently retired.

Stone skipped college, signing a Project-40 contract with the league in 2002, and was thence drafted 15th overall in the 2002 MLS SuperDraft by his hometown Dallas Burn. Despite his reputation as a phenom, Stone has struggled to get playing time with the Burn. In his first season, Stone appeared in 4 games, playing only for 91 minutes; things seemed to be changing in 2003, however, as he played 1057 minutes while appearing in 16 games. However, Stone has again struggled in 2004, as the team's direction under new coach Colin Clarke and competition from acquisition Simo Valakari has again relegated Stone primarily to the bench. Stone announced his retirement from professional soccer October 25, 2004, in order to pursue a college degree at Texas Tech University.

Stone has significant playing time for the Youth U.S. national teams, playing in the 1999 Under-17 FIFA World Youth Championship, and playing an important role for the US Under-20 team.
