Jonathan Wisniewski (born July 16, 1985 in Albi) is a French rugby union fly-half, currently playing for the Top 14 team Grenoble. He is of Polish descent and is a grandnephew of Maryan Wisniewski.

Wisniewski started playing rugby at a youth level for Gaillac. In 2000, he left for Castres, but only stayed for one year, joining the Toulouse youth academy in 2001 at age 16. He stayed there for four years, even making one appearance for the senior team during the 2004–05 season. He signed his first professional contract for Aix-en-Provence, who were unfortunately relegated from Pro D2 to Fédérale 1 at the end of the season, forcing Wisniewski to leave. He signed for Castres, but the arrival of New-Zealander Cameron McIntyre moved him to third-choice fly-half, and he was asked to leave during the winter break by his president. Wisniewski joined Colomiers in January, when the club was already doomed to relegation, but the six months spent there turned out to be a very positive personal experience for him, and his form caught the eye of ambitious Racing Métro manager Pierre Berbizier, who signed him the following summer. He overtook All-Black legend Andrew Mehrtens as first-choice fly-half in his first season for the club, and has remained first choice since, despite the arrival of such big names as François Steyn and Juan Martín Hernández. He was an integral part of Racing's first Heineken Cup campaign, that unfortunately ended in the group stage, behind Leinster and Clermont, but in front of Saracens.
