History

The Tampa Bay Bandits 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 6, 2022, it was announced on The Herd with Colin Cowherd that former Kansas City Chiefs head coach Todd Haley was named the head coach and general manager for the Bandits.

On November 15, 2022, it was announced that the Tampa Bay Bandits would not play during the 2023 season. This came with the announcement of the creation of the Memphis Showboats. The players and coaches on the existing Bandits team were transferred to the Showboats. In June 2023, league president Daryl Johnston acknowledged that the change was not a "temporary hiatus" as it was portrayed at the time, stating "It was a very difficult decision to move away from Tampa Bay and to bring the franchise here to Memphis, but it was the right decision and if we have an opportunity to go back and engage with Tampa Bay, we can."
