Michigan Panthers Relocating To Another City: Report

UNITED STATES, JUL 23 – The United Football League plans to relocate four teams due to declining attendance and TV ratings, with Michigan the only market showing a 30% attendance increase, reports say.

  • The Michigan Panthers, a United Football League team, are slated for relocation for the 2026 season after playing at Ford Field in Detroit.
  • The move follows reports by Pro Football Newsroom that the UFL will relocate the entire USFL Conference due to high costs and a struggling business model.
  • Despite growing attendance in Michigan, overall league attendance and TV ratings declined, prompting sweeping personnel cutbacks and a costly but necessary restructure.
  • The UFL noted that it routinely reviews preparations for upcoming seasons but currently has no updates regarding any unofficial rumors.
  • Relocation to new markets in Florida, Boise, Columbus, and Kentucky could impact the future of spring football, which remains uncertain as the league seeks financial recovery.
