In the 2022 rugby league season, Hull Kingston Rovers competed in Super League XXVII and the 2022 Challenge Cup. They were coached by Tony Smith until 4 July 2022 and Danny McGuire from 4 July 2022 onwards.

Season review On 11 February, Hull Kingston Rovers began their Super League campaign with a loss to Wigan Warriors, followed a week later by a defeat at Huddersfield Giants. The first win came in Round 3 at home to Castleford Tigers. The most successful period of the season came in April with a 34–10 win over Castleford in the quarter-final of the Challenge Cup and a run of four consecutive league wins that placed them in the top half of the table. In May, the Challenge Cup campaign came to an end with a 25–4 loss to Huddersfield in the semi-finals. A poor mid-season included a run of three league losses followed by a further run of four defeats culminating with a 34–28 loss to Hull F.C. at the Magic Weekend. Hopes of a play-off place were kept alive in July with back-to-back wins over Wakefield Trinity and Warrington Wolves, but a number of losses followed so that, even with a 38–28 win over Wigan in the penultimate round, Hull KR could no longer qualify and their season ended with a 36–4 away over local rivals Hull F.C.
