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.

Allegheny claimed the local (Pittsburgh area) championship by beating the Pittsburgh Athletic Club in the November 12 game, with the only scoring being a touchdown by Heffelfinger on a fumble return.
