Josie Munnelly (March 1915 – June 1996) was an Irish Gaelic footballer. His league and championship career at senior level with the Mayo county team lasted fourteen seasons from 1934 until 1948.

Munnelly made his senior debut for Mayo during the 1934–35 league and quickly became a regular member of the starting fifteen. Over the course of the following fourteen seasons he enjoyed much success, the highlight being in 1936 when he won an All-Ireland medal. Munnelly also won four Connacht medals and six National Football League medals. After ending his senior career, Munnelly joined the Mayo junior team and won an All-Ireland medal in that grade in 1957.
