Matt Jordan (born October 13, 1975 in Aurora, Colorado) is an American soccer goalkeeper, who currently plays for the Columbus Crew of Major League Soccer.

Jordan played college soccer at Clemson University from 1994 to 1997, for whom he started 80 total games, and was named a first-team All-American in 1997 while leading the Tigers to the NCAA quarterfinals.

Upon graduating, Jordan was selected tenth overall in the 1998 MLS College Draft by the Dallas Burn. Stuck behind Mark Dodd, Jordan only started one game as a rookie. However, he took the job from Dodd in the 1999 season, impressing everybody with his athletic ability. Jordan started for the next four years for the Burn, starting a total of 114 games with the team and registered a 1.51 goals against average, leading the Burn to the playoffs in each of four years with the team. However, the Burn acquired promising young goalkeeper D.J. Countess midseason 2002 and Jordan, seeing the writing on the wall, opted to try his fortunes overseas, signing with Odense B.K. of Denmark after the 2002 season.

However, Jordan saw little time with Odense, and returned to MLS in the middle of the 2004 season, signing with the Crew. He only played one game for the Crew, however, spending most of the year behind Jon Busch.
