Dylan Cockburn (born 6 August 2005) is an Scottish rugby union player. He plays for Glasgow Warriors. He previously played for Southern Knights in the Super 6. He has also played for the amateur side Melrose RFC in the Scottish Premiership.
He entered the Glasgow Warriors academy in 2025.
Cockburn played in Glasgow Warriors two pre-season matches of 25/26 season before making his competitive debut on 30 January 2026 against Irish side, the Munster Rugby at Scotstoun Stadium. The Warriors won the match with a bonus point win, running out 31 - 22 winners. Cockburn nearly scored a try in the last play of the match for the Warriors.
Franco Smith said of Cockburn before his debut:
Dylan has physically grown a lot and he's really applied himself. He's a good ball carrier, a good defender. He adds a lot of weight to the set piece. So I'm excited for him to make that next step.I definitely think he came in at the beginning of the season as somebody that can progress because of the physical attributes that he has. He still has to learn and grow, I suppose, in this environment. But tomorrow will be a good opportunity to start from there after getting started on his journey.
