About Pro Football in Houston

Houston has hosted more startup pro football franchises than any city in America. The Houston AFL franchise (1960–1996, original AFL charter team) gave Houston its first pro football identity. The WFL's Houston Texans played briefly in 1974 before relocating to Shreveport. The USFL's Houston Gamblers, with Jim Kelly running Mouse Davis's run-and-shoot, were one of the most exciting offenses ever fielded by an alternative league (1984–1985). The XFL gave Houston the Roughnecks in 2020 (and again in 2023 under the new XFL/UFL banner), the AAF had the Houston brand in its plans before folding, and Houston has even fielded a CFL team in the league's early-1990s American expansion.

This collection brings together the throwbacks Royal Retros makes across all of those eras — a one-stop shop for Houston football fans who refuse to limit themselves to a single decade or league. Shop your Bayou City history.
