The 2022 Charlotte 49ers football team represented the University of North Carolina at Charlotte in the 2022 NCAA Division I FBS football season. The 49ers played their home games at Jerry Richardson Stadium in Charlotte, North Carolina, and competed in Conference USA (C–USA). They were led by fourth-year head coach Will Healy. Charlotte fired Healy after eight games; offensive line coach Peter Rossomando finished out the season.

On February 14, tight ends coach Joe Cox left to take the same position at Alabama. On February 16 Healy announced the hiring of Greg Brown as co-defensive coordinator and Kap Dede as secondary coach. At the same time grad assistant Tyler Chadwick was promoted to tight ends coach. Assistant head coach and co-defensive coordinator Marcus West departed the program on February 24 to become the NFL's Buffalo Bills assistant defensive line coach. On March 16 Brian Baker came on board to coach defensive line. On April 7 Cordae Hankton was named running backs coach.
On October 23, following the 49ers' seventh loss of the season and loss of a chance to participate in a post-season bowl game, 4th year head coach Will Healy was relieved of his head coaching duties. Offensive line coach and former Central Connecticut head football coach Pete Rossomando was named interim head coach.
On November 15, Michigan associate head coach Biff Poggi was named the 49ers' third head coach of the modern era. Rossomando finished out the season as interim head coach with a Senior Day win over Louisiana Tech.
