Just a horrible jersey being removed from a locker and the date of April 2026 being posted. I\u2019ve been no stranger to criticizing them; I think the Falcons uniforms that they have used from 2020-2025 were the worst in franchise history. They tried too hard.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">From the horrendous jersey numbers to the \u201cATL\u201d being plastered across the chest, the jerseys screamed of Nike\u2019s modern design. And like other teams who went down that road, they are hopefully coming out the other side with better uniforms.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">I will say that the one thing I did like on the soon-to-be previous uniforms was that the away jerseys had black numbers, as they used to have with classic Falcons uniforms. Aside from that, I very much disliked them. Something else we never got to see was them wearing the <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/EvanBirchfield\/status\/1441493254730436616?s=20\" rel=\"nofollow\">red pants<\/a>, as teased in their uniform introductions in 2020. I broke it down in the tweet that\u2019s linked, but essentially they couldn\u2019t due to the stripes on the side, which hopefully will also be going away.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">In all, this is an exciting time for Falcons fans, as a new regime will be coming in along with new uniforms. It could be the beginning of a new era. I am anxiously nervous though because there\u2019s no guarantee that these uniforms will be an upgrade, although, it\u2019s certainly not a high bar to clear. I\u2019ve been very vocal about my fandom for the Falcons throwbacks, a design mirroring their 1966-1969 look. They seem to give the Falcons some sort of \u201cred helmet energy\u201d as the team is 16-3 when wearing the throwbacks since 2009, and Bijan Robinson\u2019s two longest runs (93 and 81 yards) have come while wearing them.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">I\u2019m also interested to see if the team updates the logo at all, I\u2019d be a fan of simplifying it to be closer to their original design.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Anytime the Falcons wear their throwbacks, Falcons fans and fans of other teams commonly say \u201cmake them permanent.\u201d Now we just have to hope they listened, or at least paid attention to what the fans want considering we are the ones buying the jerseys after all.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Atlanta Falcons have announced that they will be unveiling new uniforms in April 2026.
