NFL's Thanksgiving Threads and More: A Colorful Week Ahead
USAThu Nov 27 2025
The Detroit Lions are bringing back their old-school Thanksgiving look. They will wear their silver helmets, Honolulu blue jerseys, and silver pants against the Green Bay Packers. This is a big deal because they didn't wear these uniforms last year. The Dallas Cowboys will also rock their classic white helmets, navy jerseys, and white pants against the Kansas City Chiefs. Meanwhile, the Baltimore Ravens will go all out in purple against the Cincinnati Bengals.
Thanksgiving games in the NFL now honor John Madden, the legendary coach and broadcaster. Since his passing, teams playing on Thanksgiving wear a special patch with his silhouette. This tradition continues this year as part of the league's John Madden Thanksgiving Celebration.
Black Friday brings a new look for the Philadelphia Eagles. They will wear an all-black outfit against the Chicago Bears. The Ravens will also debut their alternate threads. On Sunday, the Los Angeles Chargers will wear their all-navy "Super Chargers" uniforms against the Las Vegas Raiders.
Throwback uniforms are a big part of Week 13. The Washington Commanders will wear their "Super Bowl era" look against the Denver Broncos. This is the same look they wore when they beat Denver in Super Bowl XXII. The Seattle Seahawks will also bring back their royal blue and silver throwbacks against the Minnesota Vikings. The New England Patriots will wear their red "Patriot Pat" threads against the New York Giants on Monday Night Football.
The NFL is full of traditions, and uniforms are a big part of that. Teams often bring back old looks to celebrate their history. This week is no different, with many teams wearing throwbacks and alternates. It's a fun time for fans to see their favorite teams in different colors and styles.
