Rodrigo Eduardo Tapia Contreras (born March 13, 1988) is a Chilean footballer, who currently plays forward for the Chilean club Ñublense. Tapia made his debut with Colo-Colo in 2006, appearing in three games and scoring one goal. He represented the Chilean national team at the U-17 level in 2005.
In the 2006 Clasura Tournament 2006 quarterfinals, Tapia along with many other youth players got their chance to shine because the first-team regulars were in Mexico waiting for their Copa Sudamericana 2006 match. Tapia took full advantage of the moment and scored in Colo-Colo's surprise victory over Puerto Montt, 1-0.
