Cardinals announce alternate black helmet for 2022

The Cardinals will wear the new black helmets once in the preseason against the Ravens, in Week 5 against the Eagles and Week 7 against the Saints.

The Arizona Cardinals finally jumped on the bandwagon. They are now the latest team to announce an alternate helmet they will use in 2022.

They announced Sunday an alternate black helmet that will be worm three time this year.

The alternate helmet has a shiny, gloss black shell with red flecks. The facemask is black.

Have a look:

The Cardinals will debut the black helmet in their nationally televised preseason game against the Baltimore Ravens at home. They will wear their alternate black uniforms in that game.

In Week 5, when they host the Philadelphia Eagles, they will repeat the preseason threads, wearing the black helmet with their alternate black uniform.

Then, in their Week 7 Thursday night game against the New Orleans Saints, they will wear the black helmets again but that time with their black Color Rush jerseys.

Cardinals fans have long been waiting for something new with the uniforms. These are not new threads, but it is something new and cool.

“The look of this helmet is so incredibly sharp and something I know that both are players and fans will absolutely love,” said Cardinals owner Michael Bidwill in the team’s press release. “We are excited to showcase them this season, especially on a national stage.”
