Pictures of possible new Atlanta Falcons jerseys started circulating around Twitter on Tuesday, and while we have no idea if they’re the actual new jerseys, or just a design option that was floated, they certainly appear real-ish.
An email to the Falcons asking about the jerseys’ authenticity was not immediately returned on Tuesday evening. The team did, however, send out a Tweet earlier on Tuesday saying that they were moving on from their old jerseys this offseason.
The leaked jerseys feature big blocks of white on white pants, with a black and red stripe down the side. There’s also a black alternate, There also appears to be one that is a gradient, with a flash of red transforming into black, which continues down into the black pants.
Falcons fans had mixed reactions to the possible jerseys. Some people thought they were “clean.” Others hated them with the fire of a thousand suns.
Here are the supposed leaked looks:

And the response from fans:
Even if I see the Falcons wearing gradient jerseys during a live game, I'll simply say "no, this leaked image is fake"

Based on how the black and white jerseys match, it would appear the #Falcons are throwing it back to black for the home uniforms which excites me greatly. The gradient reds would then default to the alternate "color rush" design that has been teased.

A bunch of pictures of the "leaked" jerseys. They suck.
Teams need to get more creative man. These jerseys suck. Nobody wants to buy a plain ass white jersey with Falcons written on it. https://t.co/0N7SVbR6RF
