Kevin Kilmurray (1950 – 4 December 2022) was an Irish Gaelic footballer who played for his local club Daingean and at senior level for the Offaly county team from 1969 until 1980.

Kilmurray was from Daingean, County Offaly.

Kilmurray managed the Offaly senior football team from November 2004 until 2006. He had two championship seasons in charge, most notably steering Offaly to the 2006 Leinster SFC final. That remained Offaly's most recent appearance there at the time of his death.

Kilmurray's death was announced on 4 December 2022; he had reached the age of 72. He was the fifth member of the 1971–72 Offaly team to die, following Larry Coughlan, Kieran Claffey, Mick O'Rourke and Paddy Fenning.
