2025 NFL allowing a 3rd helmet option

[*pally*]

Black with orange stripes?

The NFL informed clubs today it has revised the uniform policy to allow teams a third helmet design, per source.

This expansion was offered to the teams that were going through the re-design process for the 2024 season and is now open to all clubs for the 2025 season. pic.twitter.com/8pXHLtZqjm

Bengals throwbacks please!!

[Brownshoe]

What teams are the redesign teams? If the Bengals aren't a redesign team at least we could have a 3rd option in 2025

I’ve always liked the look of matte black with black. Stealth look. Not sure if ny teams have done that but I saw a mockup of a Bengals one once and it looked cool.

I remember when we were going to have new uniforms in 2021 and there were designs floating around the internet... One of them had the 70s throwbacks as the alternate. I really hope they go through with that this time.

Please no Browns looking throwbacks.

I'd like an all black hemet, with orange pinstripes around black stripes. Basically, take this helmet and make the white portions black.

Like this?  The concept has potential so long as it's kept simple and doesn't look too busy.

Kind of. Matte black with black stripes. Simple but effective imo.

Black with Orange stripe would look stupid. Bengal Tigers are not striped that way. They are orange with black stripes, or, when they existed, white with black stripes. Blkack with orange stripes makes about as much sense as the Colts using a bull's nose ring instead of a horseshoe.

Man, a certain portion of this fan base is gonna lose their minds when it's a black helmet with a big ole striped B on the side.

There are tigers that have more black than orange so it would not be “incorrect”.
There aren’t any blue and gold rams or blue lions in the wild so I don’t think it has to be an actual animal colors to work as a team logo/helmet.

Also black with orange stripes is a good looking helmet

Our home jerseys disagree.

The Browns helmet with BENGALS on the side? I'm a big no on that.

Just do the white helmets without any orange at all on them along with no orange on the uniforms.

To your first point, yes they can be:

To your second (bolded) point, huh? White tigers still exist.

And White Tigers have a lack of pigmentation and other geno/phenotype anomalies that the melanistic tigers do.

EDIT* and yes, no ******* old shit: helmets are eternally bland/ugly and the jerseys are, like Nicomo said, just Browns jerseys.

then have Bubble Wrap on the helmets & shoulder pads where each bubble is filled with orange Glitter 

that pops into the air on contact...
