José María Justo Cos y Macho (August 6, 1838 – December 17, 1919) was a Spanish Cardinal of the Roman Catholic Church who served as Archbishop of Valladolid from 1901 until his death, and was elevated to the cardinalate in 1911.

José Cos was born in Terán, Cabuérniga, Cantabria, and baptized in the parish of Santa Eulalia three days later, on August 9, 1838. He studied at the Jesuit School in Segura, Seminary of Monte Corbán in Santander, and the University of Salamanca, where he obtained his doctorate in theology. Cos was ordained to the priesthood in September 1862, and finished his studies in 1864. He taught at the Conciliar Seminary of Santander from 1862 to 1865, and became a canon magister of the Cathedral of Oviedo in 1865. He was named secretary to Bishop Sebastián Espinosa de los Monteros in 1882, and archdeacon of the cathedral chapter of Córdoba in 1884, which he later exchanged for the post of canon maestreescuela of the cathedral chapter of Oviedo.
