The New Orleans Breakers were a professional American football team based in New Orleans, Louisiana. The Breakers competed in the United States Football League (USFL) as a member of the league's South division.

As with the majority of the revived USFL's teams, the Breakers did not play in the metropolitan area of the city whose name they bear; they instead shared Protective Stadium with the Birmingham Stallions. The league had been in contact with the Shrine on Airline, a converted baseball park in suburban Metairie, Louisiana, about future use of that stadium for the team. This never materialized, and on December 19, 2023, the USFL informed its players union that the Breakers would not be among four USFL teams to be contracted as part of the league's upcoming merger with the XFL.

History

The New Orleans Breakers were one of eight teams that were officially announced as a USFL franchise on The Herd with Colin Cowherd on November 22, 2021.

On January 27, 2022, it was announced on The Herd with Colin Cowherd that former NCAA Head coach Larry Fedora was named the Head coach and General manager of the Breakers. Fedora would go on to lead the Breakers to a 6–4 regular season record, clinching a playoff spot following their Week 9 victory over Tampa Bay Bandits. The Breakers would lose in the divisional championship game to the Birmingham Stallions 17–31. Following the season, Fedora stepped down as the head coach of the Breakers, citing wanting to spend more time with his family.

On November 10, 2022, the Breakers announced that they had named John DeFilippo as their second head coach.
