Peter Adams (born 20 June 1964) is a former Australian rules footballer who played with Collingwood in the Victorian Football League (VFL).

Adams, a rover, came to Collingwood from Ivanhoe Amateurs in 1986.[1] He made his debut that year in Collingwood's round 21 win over Richmond, as a replacement for an injured Tony Shaw.[2][3] He also played the following week, against St Kilda at Waverley Park, where he had 19 disposals and kicked four goals.[2] Collingwood missed out on a spot in the finals by percentage.

In 1986 he also represented the VAFA at the Adelaide AAFC Carnival, which they won.[4]

He made four appearances for Collingwood in 1987.[2]
