It's just as likely that it's similar, but not exactly this; minimal stripes on the shoulder, number on front and back and that's about it.
I looked at the unimockups twitter and if the stripes are all on the top and extend a bit down into the jersey, i think that looks better but i can't see a completely blank lower sleeve.
I still don't like the number font, at all.
Nah, he said that they were it. Here is the tweet specifically.

Go back and look at his tweet in post #4. "described to me".
If someone describes them as minimal, with stripes on the shoulder and a different number font, those and a lot of other variations are possible.
Could be them. Could be something like them.

I don’t think they look that bad...

That's not confirmation. That's belief. He is in no position to confirm these jerseys and admitted as such in another tweet.

What I do find odd about this alleged reveal, however, is that they apparently made a jersey for AJ Green, who is an unrestricted free agent and may never wear the new Bengals jersey.

That looks better than on a hanger.

Something's a bit off with the #18 on that jersey.

I am not a big fan. They almost look like some knock-off they sell at Walmart of K-Mart.
I think it's the varying fonts and inconsistent bordering that turn me away.
For example, I don't like how the word "Bengals" is one color with no border but the number is white with a border.
I would have preferred block lettering (like on color rush or practice jerseys) and the "Bengals" match the same color scheme as the numbering.
I guess the stripes look ok on the shoulders though, and I'm happy the dumb side stripe on the black jersey is gone.
I'm assuming the orange is the new away jersey and black is the home, with the color rush being the alternate jersey.
These new jerseys might look better when people are wearing them, but they don't look very appealing on a hanger.
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season
Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. If he can turn this into a playoff appearance, it will be impressive.
Sorry for Party Rocking!

Damn, that looks so cheap / low budget, IMO. I'm really hoping that isn't the actual design.

I'm wondering if that's because the jersey might be angled in the pic. Hopefully not and its proof these are just some Chinese flea market knockoffs.

I know the tweet you're referencing, I am just explaining where I am getting the "confidently saying they are it". When someone says "I hope these aren't it" and he says "That is them", it comes across as if he is absolutely sure that they are it. It very well could not be them, but he is sure talking like they are and he has information on what they look like.

Yeah, I saw that tweet. However, I don't agree that someone saying "That's them" is not confirmation. That is what I am saying. He was talking pretty confidently that these are it. They very well could not be, but when someone responds saying "Yeah, that's them", to me that is a confirmation. It isn't unrealistic to think he might have some information we don't.
Either way, we will see.

Perhaps they could sew an alligator on the front left chest or up the thread count.

The only problem with him being absolutely sure, is that he's not on the inside and actually seeing them. He's saying 'how they were described' to him. So the discription could be spot on, while they could be different in reality since he's never actually seen them.

Completely fair. I will say, if these are it, they have grown on me a bit after seeing people put them on players. These wouldn't look so bad all kitted up.

I really see the Chicago Bears comparison in that pic too.

If that is the jersey, the players should be pissed. They get a good chunk of jersey sales. I, for one, can guarantee I will never buy one of those monstrosities. Burrow could lead the team to consecutive Super Bowl victories over the next 10 years wearing this, I would not buy it.
When teams design uniforms, they take them to focus groups for feedback. I can't imagine any group having a majority of its participants saying this was a good idea. And if one did, I can't imagine how bad the other candidates looked for this to get the approval...
