The Buffalo Bills are the latest NFL team to introduce a new alternate uniform, officially unveiling their “Nickel City” look ahead of the inaugural season at the new Highmark Stadium. After weeks of leaks and rumors, the design is finally here, and it’s certainly one of the more unique uniforms we’ve seen this offseason. Just because a uniform has a good story behind it doesn’t mean it’s going to look good, and I’ll say this could have been much worse.

The entire uniform is built around Buffalo’s “Nickel City” nickname, taking inspiration from the Buffalo Nickel coin and the city’s blue-collar history. The jersey and pants are both gray, with matching striping down the sides and red, white, and blue numbers that tie back into the Bills’ traditional color palette. The socks remain royal blue, helping break up what otherwise would have been a mono-gray look.

Dubbed “The Charge,” the Bills have introduced the first royal blue helmet in franchise history. The shell features a metallic flake finish with additional metallic blue accents, while the charge piece of the charging buffalo logo appears on the sides. I like the idea of introducing something new here, and the concept itself had real potential, but the execution doesn’t quite land. The striping treatment is where things get a bit busy. They made the streak as thick as the jumbo collar and had it meet in the back for what is essentially a rear logo that wraps around to the midpoint of the sides, which ends up doing more than the helmet really needs.

At the end of the day, this is a uniform that didn’t really need to be added to the rotation. The Bills already have one of the stronger visual identities in the league, and while this alternate tells a story tied to the city, it doesn’t necessarily improve what was already working.

The Los Angeles Rams have added two new alternate uniforms to their rotation for the 2026 season.

The team unveiled the new looks during a “Rams Revealed Live” event for season ticket holders on July 23, adding two throwback-inspired uniforms that celebrate different eras of franchise history. The alternates join the updated Royal and white primary uniforms, giving the Rams five total uniform options moving forward.

Both designs are heavily influenced by the history of the franchise, especially with the 75th anniversary of the Rams’ 1951 NFL Championship team.

The first uniform is the return of the iconic Sol color.

The yellow/gold jersey marks the first time the Rams have had a gold jersey since their 2015–2019 Color Rush uniforms and their 1994 throwback look. The jersey features navy and royal blue shoulder striping, bringing back the classic triple stripe design from the early 1950s. The block-style numbers continue the vintage feel, while the white pants feature matching blue-gold-blue striping.

The helmet keeps the traditional blue shell and gold horns, but receives a small update with a simpler nose bumper graphic inspired by the 1951 championship banner.

Overall, this is a great tribute to the early Los Angeles Rams teams. The bright gold color fits perfectly with the “Sol” theme and brings back an era of Rams history that has not been represented much recently. I think it’s a simple throwback without overdoing anything.

The Classic Sol uniform will debut in Week 2 on Monday Night Football against the New York Giants and will also be worn in Week 13 against the Kansas City Chiefs.

The second alternate brings back the look of the legendary Fearsome Foursome era.

The all-white jersey features blue Rams horns wrapping over the shoulders, blue block numbers outlined in black, sleeve TV numbers, and black names on the back. This is doing double number outlines right. The pants continue the clean look with a wide blue stripe surrounded by smaller black stripes.

The biggest change comes on the helmet. The Rams will wear their royal blue shell with white horns and a white facemask, creating a completely different appearance from their normal helmet. The nose bumper also features a curved Rams wordmark designed to resemble a ram horn.

This uniform is inspired by the 1960s and early 1970s Rams defense that featured legends like Deacon Jones, Rosey Grier, Lamar Lundy, and Merlin Olsen. It is also the first time since the Rams returned to Los Angeles in 2016 that white has truly been treated as a major part of their uniform identity.

The Fearsome White uniform will debut on Thanksgiving Eve against the Green Bay Packers.

The Rams have done a great job connecting their uniform history with their current identity. Both alternates feel different from each other while still looking like they belong in the same set, and they give fans two completely different throwback-inspired options heading into 2026. I love them.

The New York Jets have officially unveiled a new white alternate helmet that will debut as part of an all-white uniform during the team’s 2026 home opener against the Green Bay Packers on September 20.

The helmet features a glossy white shell and facemask with a green center stripe running from front to back. On each side is a large green “JETS” wordmark with the integrated jet silhouette like the primary and black alternate. 

Overall, is it necessary? No. Is it one of the better white-outs? Yes. The white shell gives the Jets a completely different look without straying from their identity, and it pairs perfectly with the all-white uniform they’ll wear in Week 2. For those wondering how this is possible since the Jets already have three core helmets: the limit is on helmet shells, not designs. They already have green, black, and white shells, so this just uses the same shell as the throwback. It will also join the seven other white alternate (non-throwback) helmets across the league, making it part of a growing trend rather than a truly groundbreaking move. It’ll be interesting to see whether this remains a once-a-year look or becomes a more regular part of the Jets’ uniform rotation.

Just a few weeks ago, I previewed the four major college football apparel provider changes taking effect on July 1. Well, the first of those is officially here.

Georgia Tech has unveiled its new football uniforms as the Yellow Jackets officially begin their 10-year partnership with Under Armour, replacing Adidas after eight seasons. The deal marks a return to the brand that actually supplied Georgia Tech with some of Under Armour’s very first collegiate products back in 1996, making this something of a full-circle moment for both sides.

The good news? Under Armour didn’t completely reinvent the wheel.

The Yellow Jackets will continue wearing white helmets featuring the interlocking “GT” logo, and also the alternate gold helmet. This keeps one of the cleaner helmet designs in college football intact. The home uniforms remain gold, and the road uniforms stay white. The overall striping pattern is very similar to what Georgia Tech wore under Adidas, but Under Armour has cleaned up several of the details and, in my opinion, made the entire set look a little sharper.

One of the more noticeable changes comes on the sleeves, where the striping has been refined to better match Georgia Tech’s traditional look. The numbers have also been updated with a cleaner appearance, while the new Under Armour template gives the uniforms a more modern fit without taking away from the program’s history. As expected, the Adidas branding disappears in favor of the Under Armour logo, officially beginning a new era in Atlanta.

This is pretty much exactly what I expected when I wrote my preview article. Georgia Tech wasn’t a program that needed a complete redesign. Instead, Under Armour evolved the existing look while preserving the gold and white.

Now my one critique would be more navy, and less gray. After all, there is no gray in the logo.

Sometimes the best uniform update is the one that doesn’t try too hard. Georgia Tech’s new uniforms feel familiar, clean, and modern all at the same time. That’s exactly what you want when launching a brand-new apparel partnership.

With Georgia Tech now officially in Under Armour, all eyes shift to the remaining schools making provider changes this week. Tomorrow, the next three unveilings will be Tennessee to Adidas, Penn State to Adidas, and South Carolina to Nike.

Today officially marks the end of one of the longest apparel partnerships in college athletics.

After 33 years together, Penn State’s relationship with Nike has officially come to a close as the Nittany Lions prepare to begin a new 10-year partnership with Adidas on July 1. The deal, reportedly worth around $300 million, is one of the largest apparel contracts in college sports and signals a new chapter for the university.

The partnership between Penn State and Nike dates back much further than the official contract, though.

The relationship began in the early 1980s when Penn State hired former Oregon basketball coach Dick Harter, whose connections to Nike founders Bill Bowerman and Phil Knight introduced Joe Paterno to the company. By 1983, Penn State had already become one of the few major college football programs wearing Nike cleats exclusively, years before an official apparel agreement was ever signed.

That official agreement finally arrived in 1993 as Penn State entered the Big Ten. It wasn’t just a conference change, it also marked the beginning of Nike’s presence across the university’s athletic uniforms.

That same season, the iconic Nike Swoosh made its debut on Penn State football jerseys, appearing on the sleeves. Just one year later, at Nike’s request, it was moved to the chest so it would be more visible, a notable change for one of college football’s most traditional uniforms.

Over the next three decades, the partnership became about much more than apparel. Phil Knight and Joe Paterno developed a close friendship throughout the years, with Knight even donating $400,000 to the Paterno Library following Paterno’s 400th career victory in 2011.

So why did it end?

According to multiple reports, Penn State felt it had become a lower priority within Nike’s college football portfolio, sitting behind programs such as Oregon, Ohio State, and Michigan. When it came time to negotiate a new deal, Adidas presented a 10-year, $300 million offer centered around apparel innovation and expanded NIL opportunities for student-athletes. Nike chose not to match the offer, bringing one of college athletics’s most recognizable partnerships to an end.

Beginning tomorrow, the Swoosh disappears from Happy Valley for the first time since 1993.

The uniforms themselves aren’t expected to change much. Penn State’s classic blue-and-white look is one of the most iconic in college football, and Adidas has already indicated it plans to preserve that tradition while introducing its own technology and branding.

Still, seeing anything other than a Nike logo on a Penn State uniform is going to take some getting used to.

One of college football’s most recognizable partnerships has officially come to an end.

Well, I did say after the Wawa article that there might be a little more World Cup coverage around here. As someone who spends most of his time talking about MLB and NFL uniforms, soccer kits aren’t usually my lane. But with the World Cup coming to North America and the United States set to host matches on home soil, it feels wrong not to pay attention to what the USMNT will be wearing on the biggest stage in the sport.

And honestly? I think Nike did a pretty good job.

The Home Kit: “Stripes”

The home kit takes a very different approach from the bright white jerseys we’ve seen in recent years. Instead of a bright white base, Nike went with a warm off-white shade called “Sail.” It’s subtle, but it gives the jersey a more vintage feel right away.

Of course, the real story is the striping.

Bold red stripes sweep diagonally across the front of the shirt in a wave-like pattern meant to resemble the American flag rippling in the wind. It’s a direct throwback to the  1994 World Cup jerseys, which have become one of the most beloved kits in United States soccer history. Rather than simply recreating that look, Nike modernized it by using a mix of brighter red tones alongside a deeper maroon shade which I like.

Deep Midnight Navy appears on the collar and sleeve cuffs, helping frame the chaos of the stripes and keeping the entire design grounded. The traditional USA crest remains on the left chest, opposite a navy Nike Swoosh. Crest is a new word for me believe it or not.

The Away Kit: “Stars”

If the home kit embraces the past, the away kit goes in the complete opposite direction.

Nicknamed “Stars,” the away look trades bright patriotic colors for a sleek black and navy aesthetic. The base uses a Carbon Black shade mixed with deep navy tones, creating one of the more unique United States kits we’ve seen in quite some time.

The standout detail isn’t immediately obvious. Engineered directly into the fabric is an all-over star pattern. From a distance, the jersey almost looks plain. Up close, though, the stars become much more noticeable, giving the kit a layered look without being overwhelming. Remind me a lotmof how wubtle elements are incorporated in City Connect uniforms.

To match the stealthy feel, Nike stripped all of the color out of the branding. The USA crest and Nike Swoosh are completely monochromatic, ditching the traditional red, white, and blue entirely.

I know some people will complain that a United States kit should always be bright and patriotic, but I actually think this works. 

It feels different while still being unmistakably American. But what do I know.

One detail I really appreciate is that Nike didn’t stop at just the jerseys themselves. The entire 2026 collection features a custom “Stars and Stripes” typeface designed specifically for player names and numbers. It’s a small thing, but those little details are what separate a good uniform from a great one.

I don’t cover soccer kits like I do NFL and MLB uniforms, but I have to admit, these have me excited to continue watching this summer.

This isn’t the type of article I normally write, but with the World Cup quickly approaching, I may start mixing in some more soccer kit coverage here and there. Uniforms are uniforms, and some of the creativity we see in the soccer world is honestly fascinating.

And today, that brings us to Wawa.

Wawa recently launched a pair of World Cup-inspired soccer jerseys, and honestly, I think these things are sweet. With my family being from the North, I’ve always been a big Wawa advocate, so seeing one of my favorite convenience store brands jump into the kit world was not something I had on my bingo card.

The first jersey features a bright red base with white trim on the collar and sleeve cuffs, giving it that classic soccer look while still feeling modern. Across the chest, “Wawa” appears in large white lettering, the same font as their regular branding. The iconic flying goose logo sits on the upper right chest. On on of the sleeves, “IT’S THE Little THINGS,” is written which is a nod to the stores slogan.

My favorite touch from that version might be the bottom hem. Running along the lower edge of the jersey is a repeating pattern of small white flying geese.

But as if one jersey wasn’t enough, Wawa also released a second variation that I might actually like even more.

This version swaps the crew neck for a classic white-trimmed V-neck collar, immediately giving it a more traditional football kit feel. The vibrant red base remains, but this time it’s covered in a subtle all-over geometric pattern made up of overlapping flying geese. From a distance it almost has a camouflage effect, but up close it’s one of those details that makes jerseys so good.

The large white “Wawa” wordmark remains front and center, along with the white flying goose logo on the upper right chest. Near the lower right front, similar to where a jock tag would be, “IT’S THE Little THINGS,” makes an appearance like on the other jersey.

Both jerseys feature a number set that reminds me a lot of the Toronto Blue Jays, although im sure it’s a common Soccer look im just not familiar with.

Here are the two jerseys side by side.

Wawa also released a matching soccer ball featuring its throwback logo, which I think is an absolutely awesome touch. I’ve always loved that vintage Wawa branding, and seeing it incorporated into the collection makes it even better.

No, these aren’t official World Cup kits, but they’re a fun crossover between soccer culture and one of the most beloved regional brands out there. To be honest, I think the V-neck version is the winner for me. The subtle goose pattern is a really cool detail, and it looks like something you’d actually want to wear beyond it being Wawa.

And who knows? Maybe this is just the beginning. Stay tuned, because with the World Cup getting closer, there might be a little more soccer coverage around here than usual.

July 1 brings one of the biggest apparel shakeups college football has seen in years.

Tennessee and Penn State are moving from Nike to Adidas, South Carolina is switching from Under Armour to Nike, and Georgia Tech is going from Adidas to Under Armour. All four deals are long-term and will shape each program’s look for the next decade.

Tennessee Volunteers

Tennessee returns to Adidas after its previous run from 1995–2014. This feels more like evolution than a reset, especially with Tennessee’s own creative team heavily involved in design direction. The classic orange and white identity is not going anywhere, and Smokey Grey will almost certainly remain part of the rotation.

Expect Adidas to lean into tradition with subtle things to modernize rather than anything drastic. New alternates are possible, but they’ll likely stay in the past Tennessee looks rather than creating something completely new.

Penn State Nittany Lions

Penn State’s move is massive off the field but likely minimal on it. Penn State was actually one of the original Nike schools. The classic blue and white identity is one of the most protected in sports, and there’s no real reason for that to change.

Most fans will probably only notice the Adidas branding replacing Nike on jerseys and gear. Any potential alternates would almost certainly stay extremely conservative compared to other programs with Adidas.

South Carolina Gamecocks

South Carolina enters a Nike era after nearly 20 years with Under Armour. The core identity stays consistent with garnet home jerseys, white road uniforms, and black alternates forming the foundation.

Nike’s updated uniform tech will be the biggest visible change, especially with fit, material, and detailing improvements. This is less about redesigning South Carolina and more about refining how they look on the field.

Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets

Georgia Tech moves from Adidas to Under Armour in the most uncertain transition of the four. Final uniform concepts are still being finalized, but a clean refresh of gold, white, and navy is the most likely direction.

Georgia Tech already has a strong visual identity, so the focus should be on simplicity rather than experimentation.

Uniform reveals will roll out through July and August as schools unveil new looks through photos, videos, and social media campaigns. Merchandise drops will likely follow closely after the official switch takes effect.

All four programs are entering new eras, even if the changes won’t all look dramatic at first glance.

During the Philadelphia Eagles schedule release video, which honestly may have been one of the most boring schedule release videos we have seen in years, there was one small moment that immediately caught the attention of fans.

While players were reacting to the schedule in a conference room, Saquon Barkley asked Jalen Hurts whether he preferred the current Kelly green uniforms or the all-black uniforms. Hurts answered immediately: “I need the White Kelly Green.” Barkley then responded with something along the lines of “You got the power to change that, Mr. Hurts,” clearly referencing how Hurts reportedly helped push for the Eagles to introduce black pants with the white jerseys back in 2021.

And honestly? I completely agree with Hurts here.

To understand why this is even possible now, you kind of have to look at how the Eagles uniform setup has evolved over the last few years.

In 2022, the Eagles unveiled a black alternate helmet to pair with the black alternate jersey and pants. Then in 2023, they introduced the full Kelly green throwback set, including a brand new Kelly green shell, jersey, silver pants, and white striped socks. At the time though, the NFL only allowed teams to carry two helmets, so the black helmet had to be dropped. That season, the Eagles actually wore their standard midnight green helmet with the black uniforms against the New York Giants.

Then in 2024, the NFL expanded the helmet limit to three. That allowed the black helmet to return, while the Eagles also updated the wordmark on their jerseys. That same season, they even wore the black helmet with the white jersey and black pants in Brazil during Week 1. It is important to remember too that while the NFL limits alternate uniform games to four per season, there is no limit on how often alternate helmets can be worn.

That is what makes the idea of white Kelly green uniforms so interesting.

For many fans, the white Kelly green look is one of the cleanest uniforms in franchise history. The white jersey with bright Kelly green numbers and accents, usually paired with silver pants, is tied directly to the Randall Cunningham and Reggie White era and has become one of the most requested throwback combinations among Eagles fans.

And personally, I am completely for dropping the black jersey in favor of bringing back white Kelly green uniforms.

That does not mean the black helmet and black pants have to disappear completely either. You are able to keep the pants and helmet because the uniforms would use the Kelly Green helmet, silver pants, and white striper socks. You could still create some really good combinations with those pieces while freeing up an alternate slot for the white Kelly green set. And just imagine how good white Kelly green would look in Dallas on Thanksgiving. That instantly feels bigger than another black uniform game.

The Baltimore Ravens have officially updated their primary uniforms, marking the first significant change to the team's visual identity since 2000. While the update maintains the core DNA of the franchise, the "Next Flight" collection introduces several modern technical details for 2026.

The most immediate change across the purple home, white road, and black alternate jerseys is the simplified number font. The previous gold accents and drop shadows have been removed in favor of a cleaner, solid-colored look. Despite the removal of gold from the primary numbers, it remains the mainpoint of the new purple alternate design.

A major addition to the set is the "Baltimore" wordmark on the white road jerseys. This marks the first time in franchise history that the city name has appeared on the uniform. The purple home and both alternate jerseys continue to feature the "Ravens" wordmark across the chest. 

The technical highlight of the redesign is the introduction of iridescent accents. This feature is applied to the number outlines and a new "feather" pattern on the collar, designed to mimic the natural look of a raven’s wings, appearing black from a distance but revealing purple, blue, and green tones in the light. This iridescent finish also extends to the secondary shield logo on the black alternate jerseys and the new Maryland-inspired "flag" striping on the pants. 

On the helmet side, the Ravens’ primary black shell remains largely unchanged, featuring the "talon" stripes and primary bird logo. However, the collection introduces two new alternate helmets: "Purple Rising" Helmet, which is paired with the purple alternates, this metallic purple shell now features the primary logo on the sides, replacing the previous front-facing "B" logo used during the Color Rush era.

The Black Alternate Helmet is a low-gloss black helmet featuring a black facemask and a blacked-out version of the front-facing bird logo. The logo is designed to be subtle, with the bright red eyes providing the only high-contrast detail.

The team's pant options are available in black, white, and purple. They all feature the new iridescent flag-inspired stripe. This pattern appears in black on the primary purple pants and gold on the alternate set.

Overall, these are really neat details. I did not think their old set needed changes, but I am pleasantly surprised with how these turned out.

The Los Angeles Rams have officially updated their primary uniforms, unveiling a refined logo and a new primary uniform set that moves away from several controversial design elements introduced in 2020.

The updated primary logo is a flat, gradient-free version of the "LA" horn mark. This move toward a cleaner aesthetic extends to the secondary Rams-head logo, which now features sharpened edges and the removal of all gradient shading.

The new royal blue home and white road jerseys are built on the same template as the "Rivalries" alternate that debuted last year. Both sets feature yellow horns wrapping around the shoulders and solid royal blue sleeve caps. The gradient numbers that was a big part of the previous look have been replaced with solid colors. 

The "name tag" patch previously located on the left chest has also been removed. While the design is heavily influenced by the 1973–2000 era, the modern number font remains, and the lack of sleeve space means the horns no longer have TV numbers.

On the helmet side, the standard royal blue helmet remains largely the same, though the front bumper now features an italicized wordmark where the "R" extends beneath the "A," a detail previously seen in recent draft hat leaks. The team will have three pant options: yellow, blue, and white, each featuring a distinct two-color striping pattern. The yellow pants utilize white and royal blue stripes, the blue pants use white and gold, and the white pants feature gold and royal blue.

The "Rivalries" navy uniform will stay in the rotation for one home divisional game per year through the 2027 season. Additionally, the Rams confirmed that two more alternate uniforms are scheduled for release this summer. These upcoming additions include a yellow "Color Rush" inspired jersey and a 1964–1972 throwback set, the latter of which will be paired with a royal blue helmet featuring white horns.

I really like these changes. I think removing the white from the royal primary really allows for the sol and royal to pop.

See you in a little bit for the Ravens unveil of their "Next Flight" collection.

The Washington Commanders have officially completed their visual identity overhaul. This morning, the team unveiled new primary and alternate uniforms that essentially go back to their Redskin days.

This redesign follows the "Jets model", taking a popular throwback-inspired look (the white road set worn three times last year) and building a full primary set around it. It’s a massive pivot from the 2022 launch, favoring tradition over the experimental "modern" look.

The new burgundy home jersey is a tribute to the 1979-2021 era. It features the classic deep burgundy base with bold white numbers outlined in gold. The sleeve cuffs also bring back the familiar white and gold striping. Unlike the previous home kit, which lacked a clear connection to the team's history, this one feels instantly recognizable. It takes away the "Commanders" wordmark on the chest that we saw in the previous iteration, going for a cleaner look that mirrors the 2020-21 "Washington Football Team" and late Redskins designs.

The white jersey, which we saw as an alternate in three games last season, is now the full-time road look. This is the "Super Bowl" template, famously worn in the XVII, XXII, and XXVI victories. It features a contrasting burgundy collar, burgundy numbers with gold outlines, and those iconic burgundy and gold sleeve cuffs.

Both the home and road looks will be paired with a significant helmet upgrade. The team is moving away from the satin finish used on last year's throwbacks in favor of a glossy burgundy shell. The Commander's primary "W" remains on the sides, but the details are what make it work: a gold facemask (starting in 1978) and the classic white, burgundy, and gold center stripe that first appeared in 1972. The team will have maximum flexibility with pants, offering gold, white, or burgundy options, all featuring two-color side stripes. 

The most aggressive part of this launch is the new black alternate, named the "Hail Raiser." While black alternates can often feel like a forced trend, Washington tried to make then tie into the teams history as much as possible.

The black jersey follows the same template as the home and road uniforms but uses burgundy numbers with gold outlines and burgundy/gold sleeve stripes. It’s paired with matching black pants and a unique helmet. The alternate helmet features a new secondary logo: the primary "W" combined with a gold spear, a clear nod to the 1965-69 helmet and the 2002-03 throwbacks.

Overall, I absolutley love these. I think these three main colors the Commanders bring to the table are up their for the best in the league. And now that the found away to execute on them perfecly, I am finally excited to watch the Commanders play football every week. I also love the new alternate logo. I am glad they were able to incorporare the spear somewhere in here. Really non of the combos the Commanders can go with in these are bad. All three teams who had the worst wardrobes in the league last season, all got new uniforms and are instantly top-15 best dressed teams in the league. Good job, Commanders, Titans, and Falcons. I will see you tomorrow for the Ravens unveil of their updated uniforms.

Published: 4/15/26

The Baltimore Ravens have officially announced the unveil date for their updated uniforms, with the new “Next Flight” collection set to be revealed on April 16.

This comes just one day after the Washington Commanders, who are set to unveil their full uniform refresh on April 15, giving us back-to-back reveals across the NFL.

For Baltimore, the update is expected to be subtle rather than a full redesign. The core identity will remain intact, with no changes to the primary colors, logo, or helmet design. Instead, the focus is on refining the current look while keeping it familiar.

This marks the first core uniform update for the franchise since 2000, with full details set to be revealed on April 16.

The 2020 "ATL" era is officially in the dumpster. After years of everyone begging for a return to a look that actually feels like football, the Atlanta Falcons dropped their new primary 2026 uniforms this morning. We are back to flat colors, block numbers, and a heavy emphasis on red.

The centerpiece of this launch is the return to red as the primary home jersey. It is a bold, flat red base with white block numbers. There are no custom "futuristic" fonts here, just bold, legible numbers with a neat little notch in the corner that matches the wing streaks in the primary bird logo. A white "Falcons" wordmark sits on the chest, and the bird logo itself appears on the shoulders in a layout that goes back to the 1966 design. As a nod to the 1998 team, "Dirty Birds" is stitched inside the back collar.

The road whites lean into the city’s identity with a black "Atlanta" wordmark and red numbers. This provides high contrast and feels exactly like the road looks from the late 70s and late 90s. Both the home and road jerseys can be paired with white or black pants, but the striping is where the real detail is hidden. On the white pants, the team is running a black/red/black stripe with a sliver of silver on either side. The black pants take it a step further with a complex white/black/red/black/white pattern, also finished with a sliver of silver on either side. This silver element is a subtle but intentional addition that carries throughout the uniform. While white and black pants are the initial options, sources indicate a silver pants option is planned for a future season, which would finally allow for a true 1990s-style throwback recreation. 

My least favorite part of the uniform has to the fact they are keeping the matte helmet look. I really wanted to see a return to the glossy helmet. I happen to love the wa glossy black helmets look. The silver chrome facemask is gone, however, replaced by a standard gray facemask that ties into the silver details on the pants and shoulders.

The 1966-inspired throwbacks aren't going anywhere. The Falcons can wear those red throwback helmets with the new primary red jerseys or the new road whites. The team is expected to keep the full throwback set of the black jersey and red helmet as a special event uniform to be worn a few times a year.

This isn't a flashy rebrand or anything, it is a course correction. By moving back to red and using a traditional block number set, the Falcons finally have a uniform that feels like a mix of classic and modern.

The Washington Commanders have officially confirmed that their 2026 uniform reveal is coming on April 15. While the team is calling it a "new uniform" launch, it’s becoming very clear that this is actually a massive pivot back to the franchise's roots under the new ownership group.

The teaser video didn't just hint at the "Super Bowl Era", it leaned into it entirely. Passing by the Lombardi trophies and focusing on the championship history basically confirms what we’ve been waiting for: the white "Super Bowl Era" throwbacks from last season are becoming the permanent road look. This means the burgundy version is a lock for the new home look.

As for the black uniforms, they’re getting a total makeover. They were the most horrible part of the last set. Some may of noticed the team posting more graphics with the spears, well that is what I belive the black alternate will lean into.

The modern uniform crisis in D.C. is officially over. April 15 can't come soon enough.

The Tennessee Titans have unveiled a new set of uniforms and a redesigned logo, introducing a look that draws heavily from the franchise’s past while incorporating elements tied to Nashville’s identity.

The redesign marks a significant shift away from the team’s previous era, which was defined by a navy heavy color scheme and the well known “flaming thumbtack” logo. That design had been part of the team’s identity for decades and included strong references to Greek mythology and a stylized sword motif. The new look moves in a different direction and focuses on a cleaner and more retro inspired aesthetic.

At the center of the rebrand is a renewed focus on light blue, often referred to as Titans Blue or Columbia blue, which now serves as the primary color of the team’s uniform set. The shade is closely associated with the franchise’s history as the Houston Oilers and strongly reflects that era. Red accents and white remain key parts of the palette, while navy has been reduced to a smaller accent role.

The light blue home jersey features the wordmark “Titans” across the chest with white block numbers outlined in red. The white road jersey instead displays “Tennessee” across the chest with matching white block numbers outlined in red. Both jerseys were shown paired with white and light blue pants, suggesting the team will mix and match combinations depending on the game.

One of the most distinctive features of the new uniforms appears in the striping on the sleeves and pants. The striping incorporates red, white, navy, and light blue and includes subtle guitar string patterns as a nod to Nashville’s reputation as Music City. Three stars from the Tennessee state flag are also integrated into the design.

Another notable change comes with the helmet. The team has introduced an all white helmet with a white facemask, a first in franchise history. The helmet features the new circular team logo on both sides along with a center stripe that mirrors the multi color striping used throughout the uniform set. Personally, I think a red facemask would have added more contrast and better tied into the red accents on the jerseys.

The new logo itself takes a simplified approach compared with the previous design. Instead of flames and sword imagery, the updated mark uses a circular layout in light blue and red with minimal navy accents. The design reflects both the franchise’s historical color scheme and the iconography of the Tennessee state flag.

The overall aesthetic blends the legacy of the Oilers era with modern elements tied to the team’s home in Nashville. By emphasizing light blue, simplifying the logo, and incorporating unique local elements, the Titans appear to be leaning into the strongest visual aspects of their franchise history while creating a cleaner and more contemporary identity.

And while they did not unveil an alternate uniform today, I would not rule out seeing one unveiled in July. We are only getting started with uniform refresh season.

The Philadelphia Eagles are adding a black outline to the chest wordmarks on their midnight green, white, and black jerseys, while the Kelly green throwbacks will not be affected since they do not have a wordmark. My immediate reaction is that this is not great. Like why? The Eagles already changed their wordmark in 2024 to modernize it, and while I actually didn’t mind that change, this one just feels unnecessary. It also appears that on the black jersey the outline remains black, meaning you essentially won’t even be able to see it, which I don’t really get either. As an Eagles fan I’ll definitely have a stronger opinion on this than I would with other small uniform tweaks around the league, and I’ll have more to say once we start seeing these show up at retail.

Had to get this out quick before the big Titans news tonight. Check back in around 9:00 PM. And yes... confirmed leaks are out there.

After joining Baltimore, Maxx Crosby changed his Instagram profile picture to an image of himself in a Ravens uniform wearing number 98. At first glance it just looked like a quick graphic announcing the move, but looking closer, the jersey in the image does not appear to be apart of the current Ravens set. The purple home jersey shows subtle differences compared to what the team has worn in recent seasons, suggesting the photo may be showing the updated 2026 version.

The Ravens are known to be making uniform changes for 2026, but unlike some other teams, this is expected to be more of a refresh than a full redesign. The core identity is staying the same with purple jerseys and black helmets, but the tweaks appear to lean slightly toward the franchise’s original 1996-era look. That includes elements like the older Ravens wordmark and adjustments to the number styling and collar area.

Those are exactly the kinds of differences that seem to show up in Crosby’s profile picture. The numbers and overall detailing on the jersey look slightly different than the current set, which lines up with what has been expected from this update.

New uniform season is upon us. I'll catch you back here Thursday night (pending any breaking news) to breakdown the Titans new uniforms shortly after the reveal.

Published: 3/9/26

There will be a lot of changes to the Rams look in 2026. We know they filed for uniform changes early last year, and now the 2026 draft hat appears to show an updated version of the LA logo, featuring a solid yellow mark with no gradients or extra shading. The current version uses multiple tones and fades, so moving to a flat design would be a noticeable shift, and it lines up with what we’ve been hearing about the team simplifying their branding.

If that logo does end up being the new primary mark, it sounds like the uniforms will follow the same direction. The gradients that currently appear on the numbers, horns, and logos are expected to be removed, which would give the whole set a much cleaner and more traditional look. The helmet is expected to stay the same, so this would be more of a refresh than a full redesign, just tightening up the details to match the updated logo style.

There has also been some discussion on Reddit where someone posted a mockup of what the new uniforms could look like. It doesn’t seem official, but it matches up with everything we’ve heard so far and looks pretty realistic with the gradients going away. One idea that stood out to me was a blue and white alternate, which would be a great addition if they decide to expand the set a bit.

For now this is all still based on early previews, but the direction seems pretty clear. A simplified logo and cleaner uniforms would be a noticeable change from what the Rams have now, and we’ll probably learn a lot more once official reveals start getting closer.

The Tennessee Titans have officially teased their new uniforms, which they filed for early last year. They have also announced a reveal date of March 12. This announcement follows a merchandise leak last week that I covered, where a Fanatics listing appeared to debut a new flame-less circular logo.

The team confirmed the timeline today after mysterious billboards surfaced across Nashville yesterday. The teaser image features a shot of textured "Titans Blue" fabric with the three navy stars of the Tennessee Tri-Star. This confirms rumors that the franchise is pivoting away from navy as its primary home color, with a heavier emphasis on red accents.

Published: 2/24/26

Around February 14, Valentine’s Day weekend, the Titans rebrand may have revealed itself by accident.

A “Player Pal” plush football appeared on Fanatics.com, the NFL’s official online store, through licensed partner Pegasus Sports. Embroidered on the mini football was a logo nobody had seen before. Screenshots quickly spread across Twitter, Reddit, and sports sites before the listing was taken down.

The leaked logo ditches the old flames and sword-style "T" for a clean circular emblem with a red outer ring, white middle ring, and light Columbia blue center. Inside sits a solid white T with flat edges and the three white stars from the Tennessee state flag. The red, white, and blue palette now leans heavily into lighter blue, reflecting Oilers-era heritage. This mark is part of the 2026 redesign and is tied to a full uniform rebrand expected to debut in April 2026.

I know I said it would be quiet on the football page, but this may happen a bit... Last night the Seahawks winning the Super Bowl was big, sure, but at least from a uniform perspective, the bigger story was elsewhere. The Commanders quietly teased a major overhaul for 2026, and it’s shaping up to be a full reset. The team is making their white Super Bowl era throwbacks permanent, adding a burgundy version as well, and retiring the current set, which has long been criticized as one of the league’s worst visually. The last few posts have emphasized the spear, with the old uniforms nowhere in sight, signaling a hard pivot to a new identity.

There’s also a new alternate uniform confirmed for this season, expected to drop in April alongside the permanent set. Early signs point to a spear-focused design, tying the modern look back to the team’s history.

Published: 2/9/26

The Super Bowl was underwhelming, to say the least, and it really emphasizes just how open the NFL has been this season. If the Eagles had even semi-competence on offense, you can only imagine where they could have been. As I covered in my preview, the Patriots went all ice as the home team. Visually, the game was not horrible, but mono versus mono is never exciting. It is wild to think how much a simple pants change for both teams could have shifted the entire look. The Patriots also failed to go 6–0 in silver on ice, which would have at least added some visual drama to the matchup.

The halftime show was actually solid, and many people, including myself, noticed Ronald Acuña Jr. making an appearance in there.

Now it is on to next season. Come April, we should see not one, not two, but three-plus NFL teams with full uniform refreshes. Add in throwbacks and alternates that will surely arrive by July, and it is going to be a busy offseason.

I will catch you with the next leak or uniform news. Until then, head over to the baseball section, where things are only heating up.

Seahawks @ Patriots - Santa Clara, CA (Neutral Site) | 6:30pm ET, 2/8 on NBC/Peacock

First some statistics:

• The last time the designated home team (this year the Patriots) wore white in the big game were the Buccaneers who faced the Chiefs in the 2020 SB.

• The Patriots have worn white in every Super Bowl they have been in, including the one time they were the home team when they faced the Eagles in the 2017 Super Bowl.

Silver on ice is solid, but this matchup could of been much better.

Uniform pick: Patriots

Game pick: Seahawks

Better look at the matchup.

Published: 1/31/26

Down to four teams, and two games. Two more uniform previews to end the season. Lets get started.

Patriots @ Broncos - Denver, CO | 3:00pm ET, 1/25 on CBS

The Patriots will go full ice in Denver with a chance to go to the Super Bowl. One of their solid looks that they brought back this season. Denver has yet to reveal their look but am expecting for them to run back navy/orange/white/white. It will be a lot of white below the waist.

Game pick: Broncos

Rams @ Seahawks - Seattle, WA | 6:30pm ET, 1/25 on Fox

Both teams will run back their divisonal round looks. Rams in blue below the waist and Seahawks in mono navy. Silver and yellow pants could do a lot.

Game pick: Seahawks

Uniform pick: Seahawks... I guess

Published: 1/23/26

We are down to eight teams. Time to preview the Divisional Round uni matchups.

Bills @ Broncos - Denver, CO | 4:30pm ET, 1/17 on CBS

The Bills will run back their Wild Card combo with blue below the waist. Certainly interested in the Broncos choice, but I am expecting see their standard navy/orange/white/navy.

Game pick: Bills

Uniform pick: Broncos

UPDATE: The Broncos will go navy/orange/white/white.

49ers @ Seahawks - Seattle, WA | 8:00pm ET, 1/17 on Fox

Its just about red or white socks for the Niners. I am expecting them to stay in white. Now of course the Seahawks got a bye, but am expecting to see mono navy from them.

Game pick: Seahawks

Uniform pick: 49ers

Texans @ Patriots - Foxboro, MA | 3:00pm ET, 1/18 on ESPN/ABC

Expecting both teams to remain in their Wild Card combos. Silver pants from the Pats, mono white for Houston.

Game pick: Texans

Uniform Pick: Patriots

Rams @ Bears - Chicago, IL | 6:30pm ET, 1/18 on NBC/Peacock

Same here with sticking with the combos. Bears could really back the navy pants look.

Game pick: Rams

This will be updated as teams reveal combos.

Published: 1/14/26 (With daily updates)

We opened Saturday afternoon in Charlotte with the Rams in town. Carolina went all black with the silver helmet, which is not a great look but also not the disaster it could have been. The Rams pulled off the first uniform fakeout of the entire season. Gold pants were teased, but instead they showed up with royal blue below the waist. The result was a dull visual that never really never came together. Los Angeles took care of business and moved on.

Saturday night sent us up to Chicago, where the Packers wore exactly what everyone expected from them on the road. Classic, clean, no surprises. Then the Bears decided to shake things up, and not in a good way. Navy pants and white socks made their first appearance since 2022, and I really was not a fan. It felt heavy and out of place, and it made me wonder if weather expectations played a role in the decision. Did this game miss out on being the best uniform matchup of the week? Keep reading. Chicago won and advanced.

Sunday afternoon brought us Jacksonville hosting Buffalo. The Jaguars went all teal with white socks, and honestly, this is one of the better combinations they can still pull off with their current uniform set. The Bills went blue below the waist, which worked well enough, though white socks could have given it a little extra lift. Buffalo handled business and moved on.

Then we got to Philadelphia, where the uniforms did far more heavy lifting than the Eagles offense ever did. San Francisco in gold pants is always rock solid, and if the Eagles had gone with black socks, this one would have been right in the mix for best of the week. Instead, it landed firmly in the “solid” tier. The 49ers won and advanced.

Sunday night in Foxborough delivered the visual highlight of Wild Card Weekend. The Patriots broke out their best look with silver pants, and it made an immediate difference. The Chargers looked decent on their end, though white socks would have pushed things even higher. This matchup takes the crown as the winner of the week. New England won and moved on.

The weekend wrapped up on Monday night with Pittsburgh hosting Houston. The Steelers were sharp as always, doing exactly what they do best visually. The Texans went all ice, which did little to elevate the matchup. Houston got the win and advanced.

With Wild Card Weekend complete, we now turn the page to the Divisional Round. Four games await. Bills at Broncos. Texans at Patriots. 49ers at Seahawks. Rams at Bears.

The Falcons have released a teaser video as they prepare to unveil new uniforms in April. We have known for a while that the Falcons are one of a few teams unveiling all new uniforms, while some teams are only releasing alternate/throwback jerseys. The picture i attached is a few stills from their short teaser video.

April can't come soon enough.

Published: 1/12/26

Miami @ Ole Miss  - Phoenix, AZ | 7:30pm ET, 1/8 on ABC/ESPN

I love the Miami all white look, and frankly the Ole Miss blue/blue/white isn't terrible. Solid one for the Fiesta Bowl. I got Miami in this one.

Oregon @ Indiana - Atlanta, GA | 7:30pm ET, 1/9 on ABC/ESPN

Oregon will go green helmet on white unitard. Not my favorite look from Oregon, but nothing bad. Indiana will be in their primary home uniform to complete the Peach Bowl. I got Indiana here.

See you in the CFP National Championship.

Published: 1/8/26

According to the "Pewter Report" who have been covering the Bucs for many years, say the Pewter jersey will return in some capacity in 2026. Remember, they had dropped them this year to make room for their all-white creamsicles. On the show they said, "At least for a game. At least for a preseason game." I mean I would take anything. These uniforms have been forgotten and in my opinion I actually think these are really solid. I have always loved the look of Pewter, Red, and Black.

They actually wore a different set of Pewter pants with these than what they wear with their primary jerseys. Its unclear what will be returning until we get an official statement. They were last worn in a color on color matchup in Indianapolis vs. the Colts in 2023.

AFC East

Buffalo Bills

Man, so much right here already. Just make the red helmet permanent, and bang.

Miami Dolphins

Well, here its about combos. We need less mono looks from them. Also, use your four alternate slots to maximize the home and away throwbacks everyone forgets about.

New England Patriots

Maybe add a modern red alternate, but other than that solid throwback, and wear the silver pants more.

New York Jets

Jets have been good at eliminating the mono looks. Not much I would want from them, solid throwback.

AFC North

Baltimore Ravens

The Ravens just need to eliminate the color rush look, the helmet, the gold numbered purple jersey and pants. Its just not a good look.

Cincinnati Bengals

Nothing much to critique here.

Cleveland Browns

Get rid of the poop helmet, that's all.

Pittsburgh Steelers

Wear the color rush more, eliminate the yellow shell but keep the throwback to wear with their current black helmet.

AFC South

Houston Texans

I like everything the Texans have currently, but their is much potential to wear new combos like the red pants with primary uniforms. 

Indianapolis Colts

Very clasic, solid primary uniforms. All I say is eliminate the mono white road look by using blue socks. Indiana Nights is solid, its grown on me, its fine.

Jacksonville Jaguars

Prowler Throwbacks full time. Black and white versions. Basically this uniform set from 2004-2008 as shown above with a few tweaks like stripes on the black pants.

Tennessee Titans

Now would the Oilers look be nice full time? Yes, but there are other options within their current name and color scheme. They will get new uniforms next year and am interested which direction they go with. All I asked is a major overhaul.

AFC West

Denver Broncos

Fresh off a uniform refresh, I don't have any major wishes besides just dropping the white shell.

Kansas City Chiefs

Current two uniforms are fantastic. Would be cool to see an alternate red helmet with the state of Missouri on it... oh shoot, not for long. Heading to Kansas! But in all seriousness a helmet like they wore when they were the Dallas Texans would be sweet.

Las Vegas Raiders

Make the silver numbered white throwbacks the primary road look. That's all. Classic black and silver.

Las Angeles Chargers

Just drop the yellow jersey, and bang right back to #1 in the Style Standings... but what if they don't?

That will do it for part two. See you in the baseball section soon for part three!

Wild Card Weekend is finally here, and we’re kicking off what should be an action-packed start to the playoffs. There really is not a true standout favorite right now. As uniform matchups get officially revealed, I’ll update this with my uniform favorites, along with who I like in the game. For now, here’s how things are shaping up. 

Rams @ Panthers - Charlotte, NC | 4:30pm ET, 1/10 on Fox

We start late Saturday afternoon in Charlotte with the Panthers hosting the Rams. Neither team has revealed their combos yet, but I’m really hoping for gold pants and blue socks from the Rams. Carolina will for sure be in black jerseys, but below the waist is anyone’s guess. Black, silver, or process blue are all on the table. This one has a ton of potential depending on what they choose. 

Game pick: Rams

Uniform pick: Rams

UPDATE: Rams will go Blue/White/Gold/Blue, Panthers Silver/Black/Black/Black

Packers @ Bears - Chicago, IL | 8:00pm ET, 1/10 on Prime Video

Saturday night shifts to Chicago as the Bears host the Packers. Chicago will go with their standard home look, because that’s what they do. I’m expecting Green Bay to stick with the same road identity they’ve had basically all year. Gold pants and white socks. Two classics that always feel like they’ve been playing forever.

Game pick: Bears

Uniform pick: Packers

Bills @ Jaguars - Jacksonville, FL | 1:00pm ET, 1/11 on CBS

Sunday takes us down to Jacksonville with the Bills visiting the Jaguars. We are very much counting down the final days of this current Jaguars set. Any game could be the last time we see it. Both teams should be standard helmet and jersey, but the pants are the mystery. Jacksonville could go white, teal, or black. Buffalo could go white or blue. Red is technically an option, but let’s be honest, that is not happening. What I want: white pants and black socks from the Jags, blue pants and white socks from the Bills.

Game pick: Bills

Uniform pick: Jaguars

UPDATE: The Bills will go White/White/Blue/Blue, Jaguars Black/Teal/Teal/White

49ers @ Eagles - Philadelphia, PA | 4:30pm ET, 1/11 on Fox

Later Sunday afternoon the Niners come to Philadelphia to take on the Eagles. Nothing new here. Expect what we’ve seen most of the season from both. Green jerseys and green helmets with white pants and white socks for the Eagles. Gold helmets, white jerseys, gold pants and either red or white socks from San Francisco. Simple, clean, and reliable. 

Game pick: Eagles (I have faith)

Uniform pick: 49ers

Chargers @ Patriots - Foxboro, MA | 8:00pm ET, 1/11 on NBC/Peacock

Sunday night finishes with the Chargers heading to Foxboro to play the Patriots. Both teams have a few different options they’ve already shown this season. The Chargers could go gold, powder, or white pants. The Patriots could go silver, navy, or white. My hope is gold pants from LA, and silver pants from New England. 

Game pick: Patriots

UPDATE: Patriots will go Silver/Navy/Silver/Navy, Chargers will go powder below the waist

Texans @ Steelers - Pittsburgh, PA | 8:00pm ET, 1/12 on ESPN/ABC

And then we close Wild Card Weekend on MNF in Pittsburgh with the Steelers hosting the Texans. Pittsburgh will be in black/black/gold/black as always, which never really misses. The Texans actually have some flexibility. Deep steel blue, white, or even battle red if they wanted to get bold. I’d love to see red, but history tells us we won’t. I’m hoping for white pants and navy socks here.

Game pick: Texans

Uniform pick: Steelers

UPDATE: The Texans will go Navy/White/White/White

Published: 1/6/25 (With daily updates)

We started in Tampa for the first game of the Saturday doubleheader. There were real playoff stakes on the line, with Carolina able to take the division with a win. The Buccaneers went with pewter helmets, red jerseys, white pants, and black socks, which is always a steady and reliable look for them. The Panthers countered with black below the waist. Overall it was fine.

Later that night in Santa Clara, the Niners wrapped up the 2025 Rivalries campaign by debuting their “For The Faithful” uniforms. These are solid. Easily in the conversation for best dark out in the league. The metallic gold accents, especially on the facemask, absolutely make the set. Seattle went navy below the waist, which added to the overall darkness of the match-up in a negative way but it was fine.

In Cincinnati we had a whole lot of orange on Sunday afternoon. The Browns showed up in orange pants and the Bengals basically wore their regular home look.

In East Rutherford we got a classic. Dallas in their primary look and the Giants in theirs.

Minnesota delivered one of the more underrated visual treats of the week. Green Bay wore their standard road look and the Vikings brought out their throwbacks. Those sleeves are incredible. Easily one of the most slept on throwback uniforms in the league.

Houston was, well, dark. Mono versus mono at NRG Stadium. Not a great uniform game. Not terrible. Just heavy and forgettable.

Atlanta came in with a lot on the line. A Falcons win would help Carolina, and a Saints win would help Tampa. New Orleans surprised everyone by going with gold pants, which always looks good. And then the Falcons did what they always do and dragged the whole thing back down. I am so tired of that look.

Tennessee stuck with their very limited rotation again, which feels like a big sign of a full rebrand coming. Thankfully Jacksonville saved the day by breaking out the Prowler throwbacks again. Those are absolutely their best look and should be permanent. Next season?

In Los Angeles, the Rams looked great in blue and gold. Red socks from the Cardinals would have made the matchup pop. Instead it was close to great and just missed.

Detroit once again found a way to ruin a good thing. White pants again. Silver pants against the Bears would have been perfect. Instead it felt like another Lions game that could have looked so much better.

Kansas City and Las Vegas gave us a classic. No complaints. Just a solid, familiar matchup that always works.

Same vibe in Denver. The Broncos went Orange Crush and the Chargers brought out gold pants. Bright, energetic, and honestly one of the more fun visuals of the week.

Miami did what Detroit keeps doing and took something that could have been great and flattened it. All white again. Aqua pants against the Patriots best look would have been such a huge upgrade.

And then we got to Buffalo. Highmark Stadium went out with a visual bang. In my opinion this is the best Bills look ever. Red helmet. Red socks. Blue jersey. White pants. Absolutely perfect. The Jets rolled out a surprise throwback that actually worked really well too. We found out midweek when they practiced in the white shells and it paid off.

In Philadelphia, the Eagles backups looked fantastic in Kelly Green. Washington would have helped things a lot with white socks, but it still worked.

Sunday night brought Ravens versus Steelers and I will never complain about that matchup. Purple pants would have been incredible here like I mentioned on Twitter, but even without them it felt fine.

There is no Monday night game in Week Eighteen, which means the regular season is officially over. I will be handing out best and worst uniform matchup awards later this week on Twitter, and I will be covering every round of the playoffs with previews and recaps.

See you in the playoffs.

Published: 1/5/26

NFC East

Philadelphia Eagles

For the Eagles uniforms I ask for no major changes, some that the normal eye doesn't even notice. On their Midnight Green, white, and black jerseys, I ask for them to remove the charcoal gray outlines in their numbers. Its just really not necessary. The other place where you find gray is on their pants. Take a look between the black and green stripe on the white pants, and the white and green stripe on the black pants. Its just ever so slight. I leave the green pants for last, because i have a question. You would think on a green base, the stripes would be white and black. No, obviously you would just put charcoal gray and black, with a sliver of silver. Yeah, makes a lot of sense. The green pants actually gives you a better look at where the charcoal gray would be on the white and black pants, where the silver line is. Finally, the last change I would make is lightening the midnight green helmet color to more closely match their jersey.

And yes, this is probably the team I have the most minor changes to because I am an Eagles fan and watch all of their games.

Dallas Cowboys

The biggest thing with the Cowboys that has ALWAYS bugged me is the three different colors blues on their "home" whites. Thats something I don't think will ever change, its just where is royal blue on any of their other uniforms? I actually like their other three uniforms and have no major changes.

New York Giants

With the Giants the only complaint I have is the road uniform having no blue and where on the uniform, but just the helmet. And then vice versa on the home set. Either add blue/red to each uniform, or go all one color which I prefer them not doing.

Washington Commanders

Oh, baby here we go. The first team that Zach Cohen (@ZachCohenFB) has reported as filing for uniform changes. And they are much needed changes. I am not going to go over everything that is wrong, but instead go over everything that the new uniforms need to cover. Essentially its just replicating and reversing the colors on their new throwback they introduced this season. Basically no changes would be needed to the white uniform besides maybe modernizing a few elements like sleeve trim. The home uniform would just be burgundy base, gold numbers outlined in white. The collar would probably be gold, and the sleeve trim would be white/gold. There should be two, maybe three pant options for these, gold, burgundy, and white. All with two-color trim. The helmet would stay the same as their current throwback.

NFC North

Chicago Bears

No changes to any uniform here besides dropping the alternate helmet and jersey. Its just disgusting. Keep the white throwback in throwback status, a great throwback many forget about. They didn't even wear either of those alternates this year which was a bit disappointing, at least for the throwback.

Detroit Lions

Well. The only major change to all three of their pants (besides the throwback) is ADD PANTS STRIPES! It's so simple.

Green Bay Packers

One change: add a yellow stripe to their white cheddar helmet.

NFC South

Atlanta Falcons

Another team Zach reported is filing for changes. Just make the throwback full time, add a red alternate jersey, maybe silver pants, and say goodbye to these modern disasters.

Carolina Panthers

These have really grown on me. I can't really think of changes right now, but eventualy we will need a modern remake of these. 

New Orleans Saints

First of all pelase actually wear gold pants. Besides that, add pant stripes to each of their pants, and make the gold color back to the old gold that are on their throwbacks.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers

What do we change? Pewter, red, black, and white. Perfecto.

NFC West

Arizona Cardinals

You need a home uniform redesign I just don't why it wasn't original when they got new uniforms. You had so much potential, just look at the black and white uniforms. all you had to do. BLOOD CLOTS OUT!

Los Angeles Rams

They will also be getting new uniforms next year, hopefully matching the template of their Rivalry Uniforms, with the ram horn going all the way around on the sleeve. Drop the "My name is" tag, and then drop the gradient.

Seattle Seahawks

Nothing to crtitique here besides mixing up combos a bit better.

San Francisco 49ers

Nothing here either for the 49ers.

Alabama @ Oklahoma - Norman, OK | 8:00pm ET, 12/19 on ABC/ESPN

The Crimson Tide and the Sooners will kick the CFP off tonight in Norman. It will look like a crimson scrimmage with Alabama in their usual road crimson/white/white, and Oklahoma in crimson/crimson/white. I have Alabama in this one.

Miami @ Texas A&M  - College Station, TX | 12:00pm ET, 12/20 on ABC/ESPN

The Hurricanes will be in in their all-white road uniforms as the Aggies will be in their standard home look of maroon helmets and jerseys with white pants on Saturday. I have Texas A&M here.

Tulane @ Ole Miss - Oxford, MS | 3:30pm ET, 12/20 on TNT

Tulane will be in green helmets, white jerseys and green pants and Ole Miss will counter with navy blue helmets and jerseys with gray pants. One of my favorite looks. I have Ole Miss here.

JMU @ Oregon - Eugene, OR | 7:30pm ET, 12/20 on TNT

The Dukes will be in white helmets and white jerseys with purple pants, and the Ducks will wear green helmets with gold wings, green jerseys and gold pants. I have Oregon in the one.

That will wrap up the first round.

Published: 12/19/25

We kicked things off in Tampa on Thursday night with the first true color on color clash of the 2025 season, and it could not have been better. Falcons versus Buccaneers, both in throwbacks I already talked about last week, and it was every bit as gorgeous as expected. Tampa's creamsicles paired with Atlanta's red helmets made for a stunning visual and easily the uniform high point of the week.

Sunday began in Houston hosting Arizona in what was set as an all dark versus all color matchup, though it ended up feeling a little flatter than it should have. The Cardinals stuck with their usual all white, while the Texans went all navy. Nothing offensive here, but nothing memorable either. Just okay...

Cincinnati felt like Halloween in December, and honestly, that is a compliment. The Bengals went white at home with orange pants, and the Ravens countered with purple jerseys and white pants. This was a very strong look and would normally be the best uniform matchup of the week if Thursday night had not already claimed that title.

In New England, the Patriots went all navy against the Bills. It worked, but it could have been much better. Silver pants for New England and white socks for Buffalo would have elevated this one significantly instead of leaving it feeling a bit heavy.

Chicago hosted Cleveland wearing white below the neck, which was fine, but orange pants would have added some much needed punch. As it stood, it felt like a missed opportunity against the Bears.

The Chargers went all white with powder socks against the Chiefs’ usual look. This was close to being great. Gold pants for LA would have taken this from solid to a standout.

Philadelphia and Las Vegas both showed up in their standard home and road sets. There is not much to critique here, but if the Eagles were ever going to choose a game to go all green, this would have been the one. Midnight green versus silver and black without dark Raiders pants would have looked fantastic.

Things got strange in Jacksonville, where the Jaguars went all teal with white socks and the Jets paired green pants with white socks. It was a lot happening without much cohesion, and overall I was not a fan.

The Giants wore their Legacy uniforms for the final time this season, and as always, they looked solid. Washington did their part, though burgundy pants would have really helped complete the look.

New Orleans stuck with their usual look, and Carolina did what they could to provide contrast. Nothing flashy, but it worked well enough.

I am officially done discussing the Lions’ all white look. I am tired of it, and it did not matter what the Rams did with their pants because Detroit already ruined the game visually. The Rams dishwater colored pants did not help either. Just an unpleasant watch all around.

Green Bay brought out the white cheddar look in Denver. Whatever, I guess. It was fine. The Broncos, at least, looked solid on their end.

Seattle gave us what was basically a repeat of the Texans versus Cardinals visual from earlier in the day. Dark versus light, whatever, but forgettable.

The Titans continued to add nothing to their already rough season by refusing to experiment at all, sticking to the same road and home combinations. San Francisco, meanwhile, was reliably solid as always.

Sunday Night Football closed with Dallas and Minnesota. The Vikings went all purple, which I have said before I do not hate. For some reason, purple pulls it off better than most colors in a mono look.

Down in Jacksonville, the Jaguars brought out their Prowler throwbacks again, and every time they wear these, it becomes more obvious that this set needs to be their full time look. The Colts arrived in mono white, and while it wasn’t awful, they could take a page from Cincinnati and at least have blue socks to break up the yoga pants.

Then to MetLife for the debut of the Jets “Gotham City” Rivalries uniform, which… yeah. I could go on for hours about how rough that was, but the Dolphins did their best to help with aqua pants. At least the end zone design actually looked sharp, so there was one positive.

In Tampa, we were treated to something we’ve been begging to see for ages, the Saints FINALLY brought back the gold pants. Instantly, it turned the matchup into a beauty, paired against the Bucs pewter/red/pewter/black look at Raymond James. A delightful uniform matchup we absolutely deserved after what the Saints have hidden from us.

Over in Baltimore, the Ravens and Steelers met in their usual standard home and road sets. I’d still prefer the Ravens drop the white yoga pants and bring in some contrast. Still, the matchup delivered like it always does.

Atlanta hosted Seattle in a game that was visually trying its best, but there’s only so much anyone can do when the Falcons go head to toe black yet again. The Seahawks all white with navy socks was a respectable attempt to balance things out, but Atlanta’s look remains desperately in need of a redesign.

Then we had Titans vs. Browns which… honestly, the less said the better. Just look and you will understand.

Minnesota and Washington gave us their standard home and road combinations, which looked fine but would’ve benefited massively from some variety in sock choices. A little purple and white goes a long way.

Denver went all white with navy socks against the Raiders, not adding much life into the Raiders silver and black. Orange pants from the Broncos would be nice.

Chicago and Green Bay delivered the classic look you expect from the league’s oldest rivalries.

Out west, the Rams brought blue below the waist in an attempt, to improve the look against Arizona’s infamous blood clot uniforms. It didn’t succeed, but at least the Rams showed effort. Yellow/blue below the waist would be better, I guess.

Sunday Night Football closed the weekend with the Chiefs hosting the Texans, which was a refreshingly solid uniform pairing overall.

And that wraps up another packed week across the NFL, the final bye week is now behind us, and only three more regular season weeks remain. My Eagles and the Chargers will finish things off tonight on Monday Night Football at SoFi. The Chargers are going full powder, thankfully with white leggings, while the Eagles will be all white below the neck. I would’ve loved midnight green pants or at least black socks.

See you next week for the week fifteen recap.
