Watch Jake Bobo score TD in Seahawks royal blue throwbacks

Seattle Seahawks fans are excited to watch their squad don their royal blue throwback uniform in Sunday’s Week 1 contest against the Denver Broncos. Bias aside, it’s arguably the best jersey combination in the entire National Football League. What a way to celebrate the 2024 campaign kickoff!

The Seahawks’ social media team is equally as excited. The announcement was followed up by a social clip of sophomore wide receiver Jake Bobo scoring the first touchdown in the lovely royal blues. Bobo found the end zone after going in motion and taking the handoff from quarterback Geno Smith.

The 12th Man will provide a raucous atmosphere at Lumen Field on Sunday. Rocking the royal blues versus Denver is particularly fitting because the Broncos were Seattle’s former AFC West rival from 1977-2001. This will also mark the second time in the previous three years the Seahawks will open the NFL season against the Broncos while wearing an alternate uniform. In 2022, Seattle hosted Denver on Monday Night Football while wearing their all Action Green uniform.

The Seahawks are slated to wear their throwback uniform for a second time against their NFC West rival San Francisco 49ers on Thursday Night Football in Week 6. That impending showdown will be old school versus old school, with the 49ers planning to wear their all-white throwback uniforms.

The Seahawks went 1-1 in 2023 in two games rocking the throwbacks. Seattle defeated the Cleveland Browns in their Week 8 showdown, outlasting them 24-20. Unfortunately, Seattle fell 41-35 to the Dallas Cowboys in their second and final throwback outing. The Seahawks will attempt to begin the 2024 regular-season campaign on the appropriate foot with a victory over the Broncos.
