Most NFL fans know that the league’s oldest team is the Chicago Bears (originally the Decatur Staleys). However, there is one franchise that is currently in the NFL today that, for a single season in 1947, was known as the "Miami Seahawks" before folding and eventually morphing into its current identity. Which franchise is it?
The Indianapolis Colts.
The path to becoming the Colts is convoluted: The original Miami Seahawks (an AAFC team) folded after the 1946 season. Their assets were purchased by a group that formed the original Baltimore Colts in 1947. That team later played in the NFL for one season (1950) before folding. The current Indianapolis Colts franchise was then founded in 1953 as a "new" Baltimore Colts team, using the name and history of the previous organization to maintain continuity. It is one of the most complex "family trees" in professional sports history.
