Recruited from Subiaco, Jarrad Schofield entered the AFL with West Coast in 1993, quickly establishing himself as a pacy and skilled midfielder. While he was a regular contributor during the Eagles' strong mid-90s era, he notably missed out on the 1994 premiership side, being named as an emergency. Seeking a fresh challenge and a more prominent role, Schofield was traded to Port Adelaide ahead of the 1999 season, a move that defined his career. At Alberton, he evolved into a premier wingman, renowned for his line-breaking speed, precise disposal, and ability to drift forward and kick running goals.

Schofield's time at Port Adelaide saw him become a vital component of the club's dominant midfield unit. His career pinnacle arrived in 2004, where he played an instrumental role in the Power's historic maiden premiership victory, gathering crucial possessions in the Grand Final win over Brisbane. Following the flag, he requested a trade back to Western Australia for family reasons, finishing his playing days with a two-season stint at Fremantle. He retired as a 206-game veteran and premiership player, later returning to the football industry as a highly successful WAFL coach and AFL assistant.
