The 2022 Memphis 901 FC season was the fourth season for Memphis 901 FC in the USL Championship, the second-tier professional soccer league in the United States and Canada.

The team finished 2nd in the Eastern Conference standings during the regular season with 68 points.[1] Phillip Goodrum set a new Memphis record for goals scored during the regular season with 21—one ahead of Kyle Murphy's 20 goals from the 2021 season.[2] Memphis 901 qualified for the USL Championship Playoffs and were eliminated at home in the Eastern Conference Semifinals by the Tampa Bay Rowdies. The 1–0 loss was decided by a set of penalties in stoppage time: a Memphis penalty that was saved by Phil Breno and a Tampa penalty scored by Leo Fernandes.[3]
