The wave after wave of alternative helmet announcements is over, it seems. While the Cleveland Browns announced their 75th-anniversary uniform last year, more teams got in on the possibility of uniform changes this year.
Previously, the NFL did not allow teams to have multiple helmets preferring that each team had one standard version always worn with the various uniforms the team had. Becoming a bit more flexible, with profit as an important factor, the league opened up some creative options.
As covered yesterday, that led the Chicago Bears to don a very familiar orange-colored helmet. While it lacked the Browns trademark “oreo stripe” and added the letter “C” to the side, there is now another orange helmet in the NFL.
