Sir John Drummond 2nd of Innerpeffray (c. 1486 – 1560) was Forester of Strathearn, and tutor to David Lord Drummond during his minority, and lived at the Drummond residence at Innerpeffray.

John Drummond was son of Sir John Drummond 1st of Innerpeffray, called "John Bane", (pale John), and his cousin, a daughter of John Drummond of Coldoch. His sister Sibilla Drummond was a mistress of James V of Scotland. Their younger sister Isobella Drummond married the Gordon laird of Buckie.

He was on good terms with his stepsons, Alexander Gordon, who stayed at Innerpeffray in 1544 and 1548, and the Earl of Huntly. He was a supporter of the Catholic and French interest in Scotland. He attended the privy council meeting at St Andrews on 19 December 1546 where the siege of St Andrews Castle was debated.

On 16 May 1554, Robert Elphinstone, 3rd Lord Elphinstone put his affairs in the hands of his father-in-law Lord Erskine, John Drummond of Innerpeffray, and his brothers-in-law Robert Drummond of Carnock and John Hamilton of Haggs, because he had made poor decisions about his properties in his youth. This transaction was enacted before Mary of Guise and the Privy Council of Scotland in her presence chamber at Stirling Castle.

John Drummond died in February 1560 and was buried in the chapel his family built at Innerpeffray.
