The Seattle Seahawks have announced their uniform combo for this coming weekend in Atlanta, and for those who follow uniform records like I do, this is not welcome news. The Seahawks will, regrettably, be wearing their dreaded white jersey/gray pants combo against the Falcons.
Overall, Seattle is a pitiful 3-10 all-time in this uniform combo.

These were actually the first uniforms the Seahawks wore when they received their new Nike wardrobe prior to the 2012 season. It took them all the way into Week 13 of the 2015 season for Seattle to claim their first victory in this particularly cursed combo.
For whatever reason, the Seahawks simply cannot find ways to win while wearing this uniform set. Maybe it is a curse, maybe it is superstition or maybe they just happen to have played bad that day and were going to lose no matter what. Whatever it may be, the overall record speaks for itself.
The last victory Seattle claimed in the white jersey/gray pants look was in the 2022 season when they defeated the Los Angeles Chargers 37-23. They wore this combo one other time that year, which was the 41-23 blowout loss to the San Francisco 49ers in the Wild Card round.
The Seahawks wore these once last year, during a 17-16 loss to the Rams. A game in which Seattle squandered a 16-7 lead.
