Season review
On 11 February, Salford began their Super League campaign with a 26–16 away win at Castleford Tigers which they followed with a 38–12 win over Toulouse Olympique. After this Salford began a poor run of results which saw them knocked out in the sixth round of the Challenge Cup and fall to tenth in the table by early May. However, their season then began to improve with back-to-back wins against Leeds Rhinos and Castleford and although a win over Wakefield Trinity in June was seen as boosting their chances of survival, by mid-July their win over Catalans Dragons was described in terms of them possibly reaching the play-offs. A 44–12 upset of league leaders' St Helens was part of a strong late season that also included wins over Huddersfield Giants and Castleford and meant that Salford went into the final round of the regular season having already qualified for the play-offs and so named six debutants in the squad for their 32–14 loss to Warrington wolves.

After finishing sixth in the table, Salford faced third-placed Huddersfield in the play-offs and defeated them 28–0 to set up a semi-final fixture with St Helens. On 17 September, their season was ended at the Totally Wicked Stadium by a 19–12 loss to the defending champions. At the 2022 Super League Awards on 20 September, Brodie Croft was named the Man of Steel.
