Nike loves them some team names on the front above the numbers.

Would have liked to see them have gray/silver pants & black jersey.

For people that don’t know…


That falcon is also an F. I’d didnt learn that until fairly recently. The ole’ “I was today years old when I learned…”

I think the Falcons change their uniforms more than every other NFL franchise combined.

From the Vick era early 2000’s to 2020 they stayed relatively the same. Only changes were to color combos.

The last uniform from 2020-2025 were awful.

I like this new look but wish they’d embrace the throwback or a throwback inspired modern.

No black jersey?


As part of the reveal, they announced they're still going to wear the black throwbacks with the red helmet occasionally. It's been an alternate the past few years so no change there.

Exactly. The Vick/Ryan era uniforms were unchanged for almost 20 years.

The crap they wore under Arthur Smith and Raheem Morris needed to be thrown into the sun. They were awful.

These are fine. Nothing fancy, but I think that's the point.

Aren't unprotected knees still illiegal?

Or now do players put on removable elbow and arm protection and a thin piece of nothing over their knees?

That being said, this old school style (including silver) is how the Falcons should look:

Those late 70s/early 80s unis are the ones I grew up with. I'd love to see that color scheme again. I'd make one little tweak, add the thin gold stripes on the outside of the white helmet stripes like they did in the late 60s (being in Atlanta there was a vocal minority that didn't appreciate the UGA like red and black, so the gold/white helmet stripes were added to include Tech colors on the uniform).

Why are all the teams going for the one color sock - unitard / monotone look currently? It looks weird.

The Falcons have one of the best throwback looks in the entire league and they are averse to just wearing them as their full time unis for some odd reason. A great uniform is right there and they miss every time they redo them.

The Falcons' marketing dept explained this, as misguided as I think it was. In essence, that look is so iconic and beloved that they want to keep it a Throwback, and wear it several times per year.

Dumb.

Agreed.

They got the jersey and helmet colors they should have reversed.

They look exactly like what they’ve already had.

Fail.

The helmet is the exact same. I was hoping for a red helmet.

Dumb.

I heard the Eagles' owner made a similar argument about their kelly green throwbacks. Basically that if it became the primary uniform again, it wouldn't be special anymore.

From a fan perspective, it is dumb. From a team and owner perspective, they see throwbacks as an avenue to sell more merch.
