NFL uniform redesigns: Which 5 teams need them the most? Trastitulares
Not all NFL uniform combinations were created equal. Some are much, much worse than others. The Washington Commanders, notably a team with one of the worst uniform sets in the league, unveiled their new alternates Wednesday in honor of the 93rd anniversary of their founding in 1932. The new uniforms represent a return to a more similar look to the pre-name-change Washington franchise. They are also a major step in the right direction for fixing the abominations that the team has been forced to wear.

Still, Washington has some work to do, and there are plenty of other teams around the league that still need uniform overhauls of their own. Here are the five teams most in need of new uniforms as of the 2025 season, and why they’re so desperately due for an upgrade:
1. Washington Commanders
The Commanders’ new alternates are a massive (MASSIVE) step in the right direction, but the team isn’t totally off the hook just yet. From the white road jerseys having no gold on them, to the maroon face masks instead of gold, to the inconsistency in the number design – what is that “futuristic,” polka dot look on the white jerseys? – to the ugly black uniform design with a “W” in the smack-dab middle of the forehead, to the like of piping on the pants, there just is not much to like. Expect the new alternates the team announced Wednesday to become a primary uniform for them in the near future.
2. Atlanta Falcons
The good news is the Falcons seem to have ditched the weird red-to-black gradient alternate uniforms, learning the same lesson as MLB’s Arizona Diamondbacks learned in 2016. The bad news is the number font is still bad – why is it spiky? – and there is still a half-baked side stripe: not quite full piping but no solid coloring either. The standardized “ATL” on the front of every uniform also takes away a chance of variety across the different jersey options.
3. Jacksonville Jaguars
The “Boring Uniform” store called. They want their Jaguars uniforms back. Jacksonville has kept things exceptionally safe in recent years after the weird gold-black gradient helmet thing it did between 2013 and 2017 and the weirder mustard-colored uniform alternates in 2015 and 2016. But maybe the “safe” to “out there/experimental” pendulum has swung too far the other way. The Jaguars’s current uniforms are missing the pop of previous iterations. There isn’t a visible lining around the numbers since it blends in with the rest of the uniform and there are no accents with other colors besides the black sleeves. The reason the throwbacks they introduced last year look so good is because they brought back more unique aspects: gold and black lining around the numbers, and gold stripes with a prowling jaguar on the shoulders.
4. Tennessee Titans
Until 2018, the Titans had a solid uniform concept: navy and white uniforms with a light blue collar, navy or white block letters with a light blue trim, stripes down the sides of the pants and, importantly, white helmets. Then, for some reason, Tennessee swapped the light blue collar for gray across all uniforms, updated the font to mirror “Greek or Roman” lettering – which really just adds weird tails to numbers (why is the number 1’s tail facing the wrong way?) – took away the colorful pant stripes in favor of more gray, added a weird armpit stripe to the sides of the jersey and changed the helmets to navy. Embracing more light blue looks last year was a good touch, and no team is beating the Titans’ Oilers throwbacks, but the general uniform look needs an overhaul.
5. Arizona Cardinals
Much like with the Jaguars’ uniform sets, there isn’t anything interesting here. Just three monochromatic options that don’t do anything all that unique. The lack of anything besides “Arizona” or the NFL shield logo on the front is also disappointing. The only cardinals on the jerseys are on the backs, above the names. The word “Cardinals” only appears in the striping on the shoulders of the black and white jerseys. So much for “name on the front is more important.” So… the name on the side, then? At least the number font is solid and the colored lining makes it pop better than the Jaguars’.
