Yes. There was a team in the NFL in the 1927 and 1928 seasons called the New York Yankees. They began play in the 'new' American Football League in 1926. The American Football League folded after one season and the Yankees were admitted into the NFL. Red Grange was their star player but he was injured in 1928 and sat out the entire season. The Yankees lost a lot of money and at the end of the season, the team folded.

Not to be confused with the Major League Baseball Yankees, there was a short lived professional football team also called the New York Yankees. They were part of the AFL in 1926 and then the NFL from 1927-1928. They also played their home games at Yankee Stadium.
