Joe McMahon

Joe McMahon is an Irish Gaelic football coach and former player. McMahon played for the Omagh St Enda's club and the Tyrone county team.

Early life McMahon was part of the Omagh CBS MacRory Cup team that shared the title in 2001 (the scheduled replay was abandoned, due to restrictions of crowd gatherings amid a foot-and-mouth disease outbreak), and reached the final in 2002.

His younger brother, Justin, was captain of the Tyrone team that won the 2006 Ulster Under-21 Football Championship.

Playing career A two-time All-Ireland SFC-winner, McMahon started the 2005 All-Ireland SFC final; though he had to be replaced because of injury, he became the first Omagh man to win an All-Ireland SFC title. He also started the 2008 All-Ireland SFC final at number 12, but played most of the game alongside his brother in the back line, helping to hold Kerry's "Twin Towers" of Donaghy and Walsh to 1 point.

2008 was a career-defining year for McMahon, as he was switched between the forwards and backs on the Tyrone side throughout most of the season. In the quarter-final, while being one of a number of Tyrone players sporting a beard for the occasion, he scored a crucial goal against Dublin.

In October 2005, barely a month after his All-Ireland SFC win, McMahon was part of the Omagh St Enda's team that reached the Tyrone Championship final.

Post-playing In 2018, McMahon joined the TTM Radio commentary team as match analyst.

McMahon was a coach of the Tyrone team that won the 2021 Ulster SFC and 2021 All-Ireland SFC titles. He joined the backroom management team of Robbie Brennan at Meath in 2024, but left in March 2025.
