1924 Kenosha Maroons season
Head coach	Bo Hanley and Earl Potteiger
Home field	Nash Field
Results
Record	0–4–1
League place	T–16th NFL

The 1924 Kenosha Maroons season was their sole season in the National Football League. The team played its final game on November 9, abruptly ending their year a record of 0–4–1.

The best players from the team finished the season playing with the counterparts on the similarly shuttered Hammond Pros on Thanksgiving Day as part of a touring agglomeration known as the Kenosha All-Stars. That team lost to the Rock Island Independents in a game at Douglas Park, 10 to 6, in front of what was reckoned the smallest crowd to ever see a pro football game in that city.
