Philadelphia will face Los Angeles on Sunday, and the Eagles will reverse course and wear white uniforms at home, with the Rams wearing Royal Blue on the road.
The Rams‘ official website hinted at such ahead of their season opener. Overall, the Rams will wear their royal blue jersey seven times, their white jersey six times – including Sunday’s regular season and home-opener against the Texans – and their bone jersey three times. The Rams also have the Nike Rivalries “Midnight Mode” uniform, announced this month, that will be worn in their Week 11 home game against the Seahawks.
According to Deniz Selman, it will be the first time they have worn white at home (other than preseason) since Week 2 of 2015.

The Eagles typically wear their team’s color (Midnight Green) at home, with their white jerseys primarily used for away games to contrast with their home colors. While they can choose their white or color jerseys as the home team in the regular season, they also have the option to wear white at home against rivals like the Dallas Cowboys as a strategic choice.
Usually, the white at home is to force the Cowboys into wearing the rarely used blue jerseys on the road. Philadelphia will wear Kelly Green uniforms on November 23rd against the Dallas Cowboys in a Week 12 matchup at AT&T Stadium.
