Jay Anthony Tabb (born 21 February 1984) is British-Irish footballer who plays as a midfielder and is currently a free agent after being released by Ipswich Town F.C.. He began his career at Crystal Palace but was released as a junior and joined Brentford in 2000. He moved to Crawley Town in 2003 on a loan which was ultimately cut short by injury. He played in both of Brentford's unsuccessful play-off campaigns in 2005 and 2006, making over 150 appearances for the club in total.

Tabb moved to Coventry City in June 2006 and spent two-and-a-half years at the club, picking up the Player of the Season Award for his performances during the 2007–08 season. In January 2009 he joined Reading. In 2012, he achieved the first promotion of his career as part of the 2011–12 Championship winning squad. He joined Ipswich Town on loan in March 2013 before making the move permanent three months later. He is primarily a central midfielder but has also played as full back, on both wings and as centre forward. In February 2015 Tabb won the "Dan Bartram Player of the Month" award, which included pre-match a trophy presentation at Portman Road.

Born in England to Irish parents, he is a dual citizen who has represented the Republic of Ireland at international level and won ten caps for the under–21 side between 2004–06. He received his first call up to the senior team in 2006 but has yet to make an appearance.
