The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are celebrating their 50th team anniversary in style.
On July 15, the Buccaneers announced the return of their famous creamsicle jerseys in their 2025 home opener against the New York Jets on Sunday, Sept. 21.
The 1976 throwbacks will make their official comeback since the Buccaneers debut season in 1976. Variations of the creamsicle jerseys have been shown throughout the team’s history but 2025 will be the return of the original.
“The ’76 Jersey represents a piece of Buccaneers history and serves as a tribute to the generations of fans and players who shaped this franchise,” Buccaneers chief operating officer Brian Ford said in a released statement. “As we launch into our 50th season, we’re proud to reintroduce The ’76 Jersey and the tradition it embodies. It is a reminder that every Buccaneers fan, from the originals to the newest generation, is part of an evolving story that started in 1976 and continues being written today.”
The Bucs season opener jersey will have a 50th season patch but the throwback will have its iconic orange and red outline on a white jersey. The team does not look to change their color scheme, but the representation of their roots is an appreciation of the team and its success.
How did the Buccaneers perform in the Creamsicle jersey?
In their debut season, the Buccaneers went 0-14 while sporting these jerseys. Steve Spurrier was the starting quarterback. The Bucs will try to win their first game in the original creamsicle jersey.
Different variations of the Creamsicle jersey
During the 2023 season, the Buccaneers played in a jersey inspired by the original look. The jersey had a base color of orange with white letters/numbers and red outlines. This was a throwback to the 1979 season where the Bucs adopted the primary orange colored jersey.
In 1985, 1992 and 1993, the jersey was primarily white but with red lettering and orange trim. The small details in the font and trim on the sleeves and pants also varied throughout those years. After the 1996 season, the Bucs changed their logo and changed their color scheme to the one they have today.
