The Allegheny Athletic Association played its third season of American football in 1892. Managed by Bill Kountz, the team compiled a record of 3–2–3. The team fielded the first two professional football players on record, paying Pudge Heffelfinger $500 for a game on November 12 and Sport Donnelly $250 for the following game a week later.[1]
