The Eagles are bringing back the Kelly Green uniforms in 2023, turning the legendary jerseys of the 80s into an alternate colorway in the future.
The 2010 season was the last time Philadelphia wore Kelly Green jerseys (and helmets). Shortly after, the NFL implemented a rule that teams could only have one color as a safety precaution.
With that rule changed, the Eagles will also have an all-black alternative and the Kelly Green look.
Jeffery Lurie:
“This is the season we will re-introduce the Classic Kelly Green and I’m super excited about it.”

During his State of the Franchise address in late March, the Eagles owner confirmed what fans have been craving since 2010, as the Kelly Green uniforms will return in 2023.
With the NFL schedule now revealed, we’re predicting which game or games the Birds could choose to unveil the famed look.
