The Dream started as a 2009 expansion team in the inaugural season of the Lingerie Football League (LFL). The new league had a fall and winter schedule in order to keep the championship game, the Lingerie Bowl, as an alternative Super halftime event. The Dream were led by head coach Allen Watkins and assisted by former Denver Broncos wide receiver Mark Jackson. They played two dates at their home field, Dick's Sporting Goods Park in Commerce City, Colorado, one of two teams along with the Dallas Desire to have home games in an outdoor stadium, and one of the few short-field football teams to have done so. They went winless in its first season. League commissioner Mitchell Mortaza suspended the team's operations after the 2009 season, at the same time as the struggling New York Majesty, to keep the league at an even number of teams; it was implied that the league would be unable or unwilling to reach a deal to continue playing at Dick's Sporting Goods Park.

In May 2013, the league, now rebranded as the Legends Football League, reached an agreement to play 2013 playoff games in 1stBank Center in Broomfield, Colorado, and hinted at the possible return of the Denver Dream. The Dream were added back to the league for the 2017 season, with home games at the Budweiser Events Center in Loveland, Colorado. The 2017 Denver Dream were led by head coach Carlos Bates and assisted by Jason Jines and Mitchell Shipley.

The Dream played for three more winless seasons from 2017 to 2019 before the LFL was rebranded again as the X League. When the X League launched, it instead had a team called the Denver Rush with an announced home as the Denver Coliseum.
