13 NFL teams will look different this season — Here's what we know and what's still rumored

This was first reported by Jim Wyatt of TennesseeTitans.com (via Uni-Watch.com) with speculation that they could be worn against the new Houston team, the Texans. 

"As for the Oilers throwbacks, nothing has changed from what I've said previously," Wyatt wrote. "The plan is to wear them for a home game in 2023. The exact game is still TBD, but I've already said I suspect it will be for the game vs the Texans. Wouldn't that make the most sense?"

According to the team, the new "legacy white" uniform will not be a full-fledged throwback. Rather, it is a "modernized version of arguably the franchise's most popular uniform combination that will take fans back to the 'Sack Exchange Era' of the 1980s."

The new uniform set will be worn twice this season, including on opening night against the Bills.

It includes a new blue color and an old logo. 

According to the Detroit Free-Press, the Lions will have new uniforms, but they won't be introduced until 2024. The Free-Press noted that redesigning uniforms is a two-year process, something we have seen with other teams.

There are no details yet, but we know they will not change their colors.

The orange will be worn on October 15 against the Detroit Lions. 

The team made the announcement earlier this offseason. 

It might not be obvious, but there is now a silver outline on the numbers. Also, the decals on the helmets are slightly larger. 

The NFL only allows teams to have two alternate or throwback jerseys. The Seahawks already had two with their bright green top and the "wolf grey" jersey. According to multiple reports, the Seahawks have decided to keep the green and have shelved the grey.

The most significant difference is the blue is a little darker. Nike could not produce the correct version of "process blue" until now.

"This is not a redesign, this is a color correction to bring our uniforms more in line with our true color," the Panthers told SportsLogos.net. "When Nike took us on in 2012, they chose the color in their color book that was closest to our blue. They now have a better color match."

The other noticeable difference is the shape of the black shoulder stripes, which are now pointed and no longer go around the entire sleeve. 

While not a "throwback" to a specific era, this jersey "borrows design elements from some of the Vikings' earliest uniforms," according to the team. 

The jersey has larger numbers with a more traditional font and gold trim. The sleeves also have their original classic striping. Meanwhile, the helmet has a larger horn logo and a traditional grey facemask.

Former Bills wide receiver Andre Reed may have spilled the beans on Twitter when he wrote, "Sundays will be even more sweet with Bills wearing our throwbacks."

According to Bolt Beat, there have been several not-so-subtle nods to adding a second helmet this season. 

The new jerseys have already leaked. According to Uni-Watch, the new uniforms will be based on the set worn during the Randall Cunningham era from the late 1980s to the early 1990s.

Andrew Lind of SportsLogos.net also reported that we will see at least one other alternate or throwback helmet this season for the Broncos, although we don't know what they will look like.

The Texans are working on getting approval from the NFL for new uniforms, according to Texas Sports Nation. Presumably, this is an early part of the two-year process we saw with the Lions and with other teams in recent years, so it's unclear if we can expect the new uni-set in 2024 or 2025.

The logo was chosen from a fan contest run by the team.

Maybe we will see the dog logo on the field this season.
