The 2022 Tailteann Cup was the inaugural edition of the Tailteann Cup, a Gaelic football competition contested by as many as sixteen county teams from Divisions 3 and 4 of the 2022 National Football League plus New York (other teams competed for the Sam Maguire Cup). Division 3 or 4 teams initially competed in their provincial championship and if they reached their provincial final, they continued in the 2022 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship, progressing to the All-Ireland Qualifiers, whereas if they were beaten in their provincial final, they did not participate in the 2022 Tailteann Cup.
The final was played on 9 July 2022 at Croke Park in Dublin, between Cavan and Westmeath. Westmeath won after a 2–14 to 1–13 defeat of Cavan.
