The Washington Redskins are in the process of a complete culture shift under new head coach Ron Rivera this offseason, and they’ve seen an entirely new coaching staff put into place to help take their roster into the future with success as the No. 1 goal.
With team president Bruce Allen gone and longtime head trainer Larry Hess out the door, it’s a new day in Washington, where players can notice a breath of fresh air and a reemphasized vision on winning. So with the changing of the guard, is it time for a changing of the garb as well?
Should the Redskins consider an update to their uniforms for the 2020 season?
The Burgundy & Gold is a historic color combination that has been recognizable through history as one of the iconic set of team colors in the NFL. We are not suggesting that they throw that away, but maybe offer an updated design to their jersey kits. This offseason alone, teams like the Cleveland Browns and Atlanta Falcons have already announced that they will bring new jerseys into the new year, and over the past two years, the Tenessee Titans, New York Jets and Jacksonville Jaguars all made a switch as well. Could it be time for Washington to follow?
It may be just a jersey to some, but to others, especially young fans, it could offer a breath of fresh air and a reason to buy some new merchandise. If team owner Dan Snyder wishes to increase ticket and jersey sales, it would surely help in that department. The current jerseys worn in Washington have been around for decades, and while they may have once been associated with Super Bowl wins and championship parades, they’re known for anything but right now. Enough else has changed in the franchise this year to help bring in success in the future, maybe a facelift would help as well.
