Gregory Robert Peyser (born September 7, 1983 in Lloyd Harbor, New York) is an American professional lacrosse player with the Long Island Lizards of Major League Lacrosse. Peyser also played with the Orlando Titans and New York Titans of the National Lacrosse League. He played collegiate lacrosse at Johns Hopkins University. He plays midfield and is known as a face-off specialist.

Peyser was a team captain as a senior while playing for the Johns Hopkins Blue Jays. In his junior season he was awarded USILA third team All-American honors, and helped his team win the 2005 NCAA Division I Men's Lacrosse Championship game. He finished his career with the all-time leading face-off wins percentage in Blue Jays history.

In 2003, Peyser helped Team USA win its fifth consecutive Under-19 World Lacrosse Championships, and was honored with being named the tournaments Most Outstanding Midfielder.

Peyser began his professional career with the Philadelphia Barrage in 2006. The Barrage drafted Peyser 9th overall in the second round of the 2006 MLL Collegiate Draft.

Peyser has been a member of the New Jersey Pride since the 2007 season, when he joined his brother Michael on a team that already shared a number of brothers as teammates, including the Donegers and the Molletts. The Pride acquired Peyser in exchange for the team's first round selection in the 2007 MLL Collegiate Draft (which turned out to be Navy's Bill Looney). During the 2008 MLL Collegiate Draft, the Pride selected Peyser's younger brother Stephen. During Week 6 of the 2008 MLL season, the Peyser brothers (Michael, Gregory, and Stephen) became the first trio of brothers to play on the same Major League Lacrosse team together.
