1896 Allegheny Athletic Association football season

The Allegheny Athletic Association played its sixth and last season of American football in 1896.

With a new roster made up largely of former college All-Americans and current and former Chicago Athletic Association players, the team played only two games, on consecutive days, winning both by shutout.
