There have been two unrelated American football teams called the Baltimore Colts based in Baltimore, Maryland.

The first Colts team started in the All-America Football Conference in 1946 as the Miami Seahawks. They moved to Baltimore in 1947. In 1950, they joined the National Football League and finished the season with a record of 1 win to 11 losses. They folded after the 1950 season; however, supporting groups such as a fan club and a marching band reamined in operation and worked for the team's revival.

A different Colts team, created from the nucleus of the Dallas Texans, joined the NFL in 1953. In 1984 they moved and became the Indianapolis Colts.
