Brian Cuthbert (born 1975) is an Irish former Gaelic footballer.

Born in Bishopstown, Cork, Cuthbert first arrived on the inter-county scene at the age of seventeen when he first linked up with the Cork minor team, before later lining out with the under-21 side. Although he never played in the senior grade, Cuthbert won an All-Ireland medal as captain of the minor team in 1993.

At club level Cuthbert is a two-time championship medallist in the intermediate grade with Bishopstown as a hurler.

In retirement from playing Cuthbert became involved in team management and coaching.
