The 2022 Winnipeg Blue Bombers season is the 64th season for the team in the Canadian Football League (CFL) and their 89th season overall. The Blue Bombers entered the season as the two-time defending Grey Cup champions after winning both the 107th and 108th Grey Cup games. The team qualified for the playoffs following their 12th game of the season after defeating the Saskatchewan Roughriders in the Labour Day Classic on September 4, 2022.[1] The team then clinched first place in the division in week 18 following their victory over the Edmonton Elks on October 8, 2022.[2] Once the playoffs commence, the Blue Bombers will attempt to win their 13th Grey Cup championship.

The 2022 CFL season is the eighth season under head coach Mike O'Shea and the eighth full season under general manager Kyle Walters.[3]
