Seahawks to wear all-college navy uniforms in Week 5

Seahawks to wear all-college navy uniforms in Week 5

The most important bit of news for the Seattle Seahawks is here: what uniform combination they will be wearing! Or, at least, important to those who actively track uniform combination records… such as myself. On Wednesday afternoon the Seahawks announced they will once again be wearing their all-college navy uniforms, the typical combination for home games, for their Week 5 game against the New York Giants.

Seattle last wore this combo two weeks ago in Week 3 when they hosted the Miami Dolphins. The Seahawks took care of business, winning 24-3 in said game.

The Seahawks enjoy a lofty record of 66-26 in the all-college navy look all-time, including 1-0 this year. The record makes sense, considering the success the Seahawks typically enjoy at Lumen Field and how it is their most common home uniform look.

Seattle has worn the all-college navy look against the Giants twice since these uniforms were introduced prior to the 2012 season. The Seahawks are 1-1 against New York in these threads, losing 17-12 to Big Blue in 2020 but defeating them soundly 27-13 during the 2022 campaign.

Where Seahawks stand in latest NFL uniform power rankings

The Seattle Seahawks have landed at No. 4 in USA TODAY Sports latest NFL uniform power rankings of 2020.

The coronavirus might be sweeping the globe but the NFL and teams around the league are doing everything they can to keep fans informed and interested ahead of what is sure to be a virtual offseason.

Over the last few weeks, a number of clubs have updated their looks with fresh new uniforms stylings. In light of the new fashion trend, Nate Davis of USA TODAY Sports took a look at all the changes before compiling his latest NFL uniform power rankings.

While the black and silver of the Las Vegas Raiders took the top spot, Seattle wasn’t far behind, landing at No. 4.

“The ‘College Navy’ and ‘Action Green’ reflect the Emerald City (in case you’ve never visited) as does the logo, a callback to a mask designed by Indians native to the Pacific Northwest (it also resembles birds seen on regional totems),” Davis writes.

“And, for my money, this 2012 uniform reboot has been Nike’s lone home run since becoming the NFL’s apparel provider,” Davis continues. “The matte helmet with feathers tapering down the middle and ’12’ elements to honor their fan base, including 12 feathers along each side of the pants and along the neckline, are sweet subtleties.”
