Jack Hughes (born 4 January 1992 in Billinge Higher End, Wigan, Greater Manchester) is an English rugby league player for Warrington Wolves in the Super League. His preferred playing position is at second-row. Hughes made his first-grade début for Wigan in a fourth round Challenge Cup win over Barrow on 8 May 2011. He has also appeared representatively in an academy squad for the English national team in 2010 to face the Australian Schoolboys rugby league side during their tour of England.

Hughes was born on 4 January 1992 in Billinge Higher End, Wigan. He attended Golborne High School for his secondary education. Before joining Wigan officially in 2008, Hughes played for Golborne Parkside, right up until u16s age level, and then amateur Wigan St Judes feeder club.

Hughes' first experience of professional rugby league came in 2011, when he was sent to Barrow on a dual-registration deal. Although not announced during the pre-season in Wigan's 2011 squad, he made his début first-grade appearance in the fourth round of the 2011 Challenge Cup, ironically a victory against Barrow, playing off the bench as a substitute for Wigan.

Hughes broke into the first team at Wigan at the start of the 2012 season, and was soon rewarded with a new long-term contract with the club. In 2013, he played one game at Leigh Centurions on dual registration.
