The Tampa Bay Buccaneers gave their fans a treat today by unveiling their new uniforms for 2020. As most people can see, the jerseys are pretty much a callback to the uniforms they wore prior to the 2014 redesign, which didn’t go over as well as the team had hoped.
That means new Bucs quarterback Tom Brady won’t have to wear those alarm clock numbers now. Instead, the Bucs can kick off the Brady era in style. Plus, if a return to the playoffs is in their future, they want to look their best, especially if it’ll be their first postseason appearance in over a decade.
Some fans are certainly a little disappointed to see that the Bucs didn’t go even further back in their redesign by bringing back the creamsicle jerseys of yesteryear. Still, the new look is better than what they had.
Take a look now at the Bucs’ jerseys through the years.
Not to be that guy, but that first picture is incorrect in terms of the year. The Bucs’ inaugural season was 1976, but the quarterback in the picture above is none other than Doug Williams, who was drafted by the Bucs in the 1978 draft.
So, who was Tampa Bay’s quarterback in 1976? Just some guy named Steve Spurrier.
