The 2023 Elon Phoenix football team represented Elon University as a member of the Coastal Athletic Association Football Conference (CAA) during the 2023 NCAA Division I FCS football season. The Phoenix were led by fifth-year head coach Tony Trisciani and played home games at Rhodes Stadium in Elon, North Carolina.
The CAA, formerly known as the Colonial Athletic Association from 2007 through 2022, changed its name in July 2023 to accommodate future membership expansion outside of the Thirteen Colonies.
