The new league is a merger between the XFL and USFL, which each had a team in Houston.
As part of the merger, the USFL's Houston Gamblers have been rebranded as the Houston Roughnecks.
The former XFL Roughnecks head coach, Wade Phillips, will now coach the San Antonio team, and the former USFL Gamblers head coach, Curtis Johnson, will now lead the new Roughnecks.
The inaugural UFL season kicks off on March 30, 2024. The league will be divided into two conferences: USFL and XFL.
