Broncos unveil new uniforms in ‘Mile High Collection’ hype video

The Denver Broncos unveiled their new uniforms with a two-minute hype video. We’re excited!

The Denver Broncos became the latest team to release their new uniform set for the 2024 NFL season and beyond on Monday.

The team used a two-minute hype video to show off the new threads. The video highlighted Colorado’s Rocky Mountain region, the blue-collar work ethic of the people of the state and the wild, raw power of the Bronco.

The video culminates with several players modeling the three new jersey patterns: the orange home jersey, the white away jersey and the navy blue alternate jersey. The video cuts off with a pair of cleats and throwback socks walking onto the stage. The team also put out a second video to commemorate the 1977-themed throwback uniform.

That throwback uniform is simply beautiful.

If these hype videos don’t get Broncos Country excited about the new uniforms, nothing will. Bring on the new-look Broncos!

Alabama basketball jerseys rank No. 1 in the country in 2024

Alabama’s brand new white basketball uniforms ranked No. 1 in the country by Uniswag

Listen, I get that correlation does not mean causation, however, I am certain that there is a direct correlation between Alabama Crimson Tide basketball unveiling a new uniform and going on the program’s first-ever Final Four run. The Tide faithful have been singing the praises of the uniform’s beauty since it was unveiled during the middle of the season, but their feelings were officially validated as Uniswag voted it as the Uniform of the Year in College Basketball.

The uniforms are just a small symbol of the upgrades that are coming to Tide Hoops as a result of head coach Nate Oats’s unprecedented success.

Oats and the Crimson Tide agreed to a new deal shortly ahead of March Madness keeping him in Tuscaloosa for the foreseeable future with one of the biggest buyouts in the sport.

I would imagine that on top of an increase in pay and further job security, Oats was given assurances regarding the resources that would be given to him in the coming years. As one of the top five coaches in college basketball, the Tide did all the right things by locking him up sooner rather than later. Especially with things like the Kentucky job opening up less than a month later.

Fanatics’ Michael Rubin deflected blame for the awful new MLB jerseys

Fanatics’ CEO said the company isn’t at fault for the MLB jersey debacle

Fanatics founder Michael Rubin had to answer for the new, and much-maligned, MLB jerseys on Friday and tried his best to explain why his company isn’t to blame.

The jerseys have been criticized by players as cheap-looking since the start of spring training. Then it became clear the pants presented an even bigger issue — the new material used was more or less see-through when worn.

At the MIT Sloan Sports Analytics Conference on Friday, Rubin commented on the Fanatics-produced uniforms and said they were providing what Nike requested this year.

“We’re purely doing exactly as we’ve been told, and we’ve been told we’re doing everything exactly right.” Rubin said. “And we’re getting the [expletive] kicked out of us. So that’s not fun.”

The CEO went on to explain all the specs came from Nike, which received input from the players.

Per the Associated Press:

Rubin said uniforms were made to the specifications set by MLB and Nike. Fanatics has been making the baseball uniform since 2017, he said; Fanatics bought the company that has been making the uniforms since 2005, so there has been no real change in the manufacturer in almost two decades.

Rubin said Nike made changes “for all the right reasons” after getting feedback from players who wanted material more breathable and stretchable.

That probably won’t satisfy the union, which on Thursday reiterated a request for alterations to the uniforms before Opening Day at the end of March.

LOOK: Chiefs seen wearing Super Bowl LVIII jerseys ahead of matchup vs. 49ers

Check out these pictures and videos of all the #Chiefs’ stars wearing their Super Bowl LVIII jerseys.

The Kansas City Chiefs haven’t been shy about sharing pictures of their players wearing the red Super Bowl LVIII jerseys they’ll don against the San Francisco 49ers on February 11.

Promotional shots of Kansas City’s biggest stars have been making the rounds on social media, and just over a week removed from their championship game, the Chiefs seem to be settling into their uniforms which are newly adorned with a Super Bowl patch.

Expectations were high for Kansas City entering the 2023 season, and after a grueling playoff run that saw the Chiefs play two road games against elite opponents, the team has earned its chance to defend its championship.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

Star players like Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce, Chris Jones, and L’Jarius Sneed have all helped get the team to where it is today and were featured in photoshoots on Twitter showing off their Super Bowl jerseys.

Check out the top pictures of Kansas City’s stars below:

Saints will be wearing their gold helmets, not black alternates, against the Rams

The Saints will be wearing their gold helmets, not black alternates, and Color Rush jerseys against the Rams on Thursday night:

There’s confirmation: the New Orleans Saints have put their alternate black helmets on the shelf and packed their signature gold lids for Thursday night’s prime-time game against the Los Angeles Rams. We already knew the Saints would be wearing their popular “Color Rush” jerseys in this matchup, based off previous announcements, and they’ve now clarified the choice in headgear.

It’s a good decision. The “Color Rush” uniforms and gold helmets made for the best look in the NFL after it was debuted, but the mismatched black helmets just didn’t work out. There’s certainly room for an alternate black helmet in the team’s wardrobe. They just need to spend a little more time in the lab pairing it with the right uniform variant.

The Saints achieved a 9-5 record in their “Color Rush” uniforms from 2016 to 2021, but they were winless in their black helmets across the 2022 season and this year’s loss to the Atlanta Falcons (going 0-3). Hopefully switching back to gold helmets with the alternate jerseys helps them find their mojo again.

Saints will be wearing their Color Rush uniforms against the Rams, with a twist

The Saints will be wearing their Color Rush uniforms against the Rams, with a twist. They might be shelving their controversial black helmets:

Now this is interesting. The New Orleans Saints (7-7) are hitting the road for a huge game with the Los Angeles Rams (7-7) on Thursday night, and they’ve announced that they’ll be wearing the fan-favorite “Color Rush” alternate uniforms for this prime-time game — with a twist.

It looks like the Saints are ditching the controversial black helmets they’ve paired with these all-white uniforms since last year’s game with the Minnesota Vikings in London. Their announcement on social media uses older photos of players wearing the usual gold helmets, not these new black ones, which drew a mixed reaction from fans for clashing with the jerseys and pants.

Hopefully that’s the case. Black helmets could work for the Saints if paired with the right uniforms (like their classic throwbacks) and if given a little more polish. We’ll find out for sure at kickoff. If you’re curious, the Saints were 9-5 in their “Color Rush” variants with gold helmets, and winless in three games with black helmets.

And if you’re superstitious, here’s how that compares to the other kits used since 2006 (not including the controversial gold jerseys used in a loss back in 2003):

Saints announce uniform combo for Week 15 vs. Giants

The Saints announced their uniform combo for Week 15’s game against the Giants: black jerseys and matching black pants

There it is: the New Orleans Saints (6-7) announced they will be wearing their black jerseys and matching black pants for Sunday’s kickoff with the New York Giants (5-8), an appropriate look for the final leg of their three-game homestand. The Saints badly need a win to stay alive in the NFC South title race and once again claw back to a .500 record with the regular season finale in sight.

If you’re curious, the Saints have worn this uniform combo in 89 games since the start of the 2006 season, logging a 52-37 record along the way. Here’s how that compares to the other kits used since 2006 (not including the controversial gold jerseys used in a loss back in 2003):

Saints will wear throwback uniforms for Week 14 game vs. Panthers

The New Orleans Saints will be breaking out their black and gold throwback uniforms for Week 14’s game with the Carolina Panthers:

This is cool: the New Orleans Saints will be breaking out their black and gold throwback uniforms for Week 14’s game with the Carolina Panthers, dusting them off for the second time in as many years (they were used in last season’s Week 11 win over the Los Angeles Rams after going on a long hiatus).

The Saints are 3-1 in these throwback kits dating back to 2006, with the only loss coming in a 2016 defeat to the Detroit Lions. They have the best win percentage (.750) in the old-school throwbacks, modeled after the team’s uniforms from the inaugural 1967 season jerseys and pants, of any uniform combo in the modern ear of Saints football.

Here’s how the Saints’ winning percentage in different uniforms compare since 2006, if you’re curious (not including the controversial gold jerseys used in a loss back in 2003):

Saints announce uniform combo for Week 13 game vs. Lions

Saints announce uniform combo for Week 13 game vs. Lions

The  New Orleans Saints announced they will be wearing their black home jerseys and matching black pants for Week 13’s game with the Detroit Lions. It’s been their most-popular uniform combinations over the years, being worn in 89 games dating back to 2006. The Saints have a 52-37 record in this kit during that span. They’ll be hoping to add another win on Sunday in front of a home crowd that might need some convincing these Saints are worth rooting for.

Here’s how the Saints’ winning percentage in this combination stacks up to the other uniforms in their wardrobe, if you’re curious (not including the controversial gold jerseys used in a loss back in 2003):

Saints will be wearing their ‘Color Rush’ uniforms and mismatched helmets vs. Falcons

The Saints will be wearing their “Color Rush” uniforms and mismatched black helmets in Sunday’s game with the Falcons:

They’re back: the New Orleans Saints are wearing the alternate black helmets they debuted last season in Week 12’s road game with the Atlanta Falcons, pairing them with mismatched “Color Rush” jerseys, the team announced Friday.

It isn’t a good look. The white-and-gold uniforms clash with the predominately black helmets, which feature design elements that don’t carry over to the jerseys and pants — like a field of small fleur-de-lis running down the center of the helmet replacing the usual stripe.

But the Saints are determined to make them happen anyway. The NFL allowed teams to wear alternate helmets last season to accommodate unique uniform choices, but the Saints didn’t think it through far enough, simply pairing new helmets with an established alternate jersey. It’s a shame. The helmets would look much better paired with black throwback uniforms or a new all-black kit altogether. Instead, they’ve spoiled what was one of the cleanest looks in the NFL.

Here’s how the Saints’ winning percentage in this combination stacks up to the other uniforms in their wardrobe, if you’re curious (not including the controversial gold jerseys used in a loss back in 2003):
