Bucs reveal uniform combo for Week 3 game against Eagles

The Bucs will be back in red for the first time in the regular season.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are bringing out their red jerseys under the lights.

The Bucs announced Wednesday that the team will wear red for the first time this season, planning to don them on Monday Night Football against the Philadelphia Eagles over white pants. The Bucs wore white-on-pewter in their first game of the season against the Vikings and white-on-white on Sunday at home against the Bears.

Tampa Bay has historically worn its white jersey as its home jersey due to the Tampa Bay heat, but the opportunity to wear red early in the year usually comes during night games. The Bucs have technically worn this red-on-white once before this year, donning the combo against the Baltimore Ravens in the preseason.

Naturally, as the Bucs are wearing red, it would be safe to assume that the Eagles will be in some variant of their white uniforms in Raymond James Stadium.
