On July 25, 2023, XFL CEO/President Russ Brandon issued a statement clarifying the recent rumors about the Houston Roughnecks looking for a new place to play, and the potential impact of renovations at TDECU Stadium on the 2024 Houston Roughnecks home game schedule:

“The XFL is working with the University of Houston to determine the availability of TDECU Stadium for our games in 2024 as the building undergoes renovations. If we determine that the stadium is unavailable to accommodate our home dates, we will find a new home in the area for the coming season. The XFL loves Houston, and the Roughneck Nation loves the XFL. We aren’t going anywhere!”

The statement was clearly made to quell rumors, especially at a time when the league is planning to sell tickets for the 2024 season.
