Last June the NFL approved a new rule that allowed teams to have one alternate color helmet to blend in with the new alternate jersey craze.
Because the Eagles initially submitted black as the color of choice for 2021 and 2022, they’ll have to wait another calendar to bring back the famous Kelly Green look.
On Tuesday, team owner Jeffrey Lurie confirmed that Philadelphia will debut a new black helmet in 2022, before debuting the new Nike Kelly Green uniforms in 2023.
The Eagles owner also had a lot to be say about how much he’s involved in draft decisions.
