Orlando Renegades was a professional American Football team that played in the United States Football League in the mid 1980s.

The Renegades started out in 1983 as the Washington Federals and played in Washington, D.C.'s Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Stadium. The team lured Ray Jauch to be it's head coach, he had previously guided the Winnipeg Blue Bombers to success in the Canadian Football League. The team was a disaster both on the field and at the gate, only winning seven games in its two years in Washington. The team relocated in 1985 to Orlando, Florida, after the USFL announced plans to switch to a fall schedule for the 1986 season. The team and league never saw 1986.

In 1983, one of their quarterbacks was "Jefferson Street" Joe Gilliam of the 1970's Pittsburgh Steelers. He was way past his prime and only threw for 673 yards.

In 1985, the Renegades were coached by Lee Corso. The teams' offense featured running back Curtis Bledsoe and Joey Walters at wide receiver.
