The NFL has announced a new uniform policy for the 2025 season, and I have a feeling fans across the league are going to be happy about it. On Monday afternoon it was announced that teams are now allowed to wear their throwback and alternate uniforms up to four times this year. Previously, teams were limited to only three games with their throwbacks/alternates.
Of course, with this news, there's likely one thing on the mind of the 12th Man: more opportunities to see the royal blue throwbacks in action!
The Seahawks wore their beloved throwbacks twice last season. They made their season debut in the 26-20 victory over the Denver Broncos in Week 1, and they re-appeared during a 36-24 loss to the San Francisco 49ers in Week 6. The only reason why Seattle did not opt to wear these threads a third time is because they decided to wear the all-Action Green alternates for a Sunday Night Football contest against the Green Bay Packers in Week 15.
Rules regarding the usage of a third helmet were also loosened, but that does not apply to the Seahawks as of right now. Seattle currently only has their typical navy helmet, and their silver throwback.
Adding an extra game to bust out a throwback or alternate jersey will obviously allow teams to fully maximize their entire wardrobe, and bring versatility to the field. While fans will surely be pining for another game with the throwbacks (I won't complain) I personally would like to see Seattle use the opportunity to wear the Action Green jersey again. One of my favorite combinations in the Seahawks uniform rotation is the Action Green jersey paired with their navy pants. It was a look we did not get to see last year, and have not seen since Week 15 of the 2022 season.

First image of Christian Gonzalez facing Stefon Diggs at Patriots camp
The New England Patriots showed off the first image of All-Pro cornerback Christian Gonzalez lining up against four-time Pro Bowl wide receiver Stefon Diggs in a social media post on Thursday. Gonzalez admitted earlier in the week that he was excited to match up against Diggs in practice. Iron sharpens iron, as the saying goes. Gonzalez is on the rise as one of the best cornerbacks in the NFL, and Diggs is looking to climb back into the elite tier of wide receivers, following an ACL injury last October. Before the injury, Diggs was coming off six straight 1,000-yard receiving seasons. There's hope that he can get back to that same level in New England. One way for Diggs to test himself is frequent head-to-head matchups against one of the top corners in the game. Gonzalez recently made ESPN's top-10 cornerbacks list, which polled votes from executives, coaches and NFL scouts around the league. The former Oregon standout landed at No. 6 in the rankings with one NFL assistant comparing him to the No. 1 player on the list, Denver Broncos cornerback Patrick Surtain II. "I think Gonzo is the next great one," a veteran NFL assistant said, via ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. "Skills, patience, length. He's the closest thing to Pat [Surtain II]. Smooth, big athlete, travels a lot, can matchup against the best guy." Follow Patriots Wire on Twitter and Facebook.

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love named No. 68 on NFL Top 100 players list
A second Green Bay Packers player has been named one of the NFL's Top 100 players. Quarterback Jordan Love is No. 68 in his second appearance in the league's annual ranking, which players vote on. Packers pass rusher Rashan Gary was named No. 80 on July 14. The Top 100 list began rolling out in late June and will continue through the exhibition portion of the season; the top 10 players are announced Sept. 1. Love fell from his 2024 debut spot of No. 34 after injuries disrupted his season. Missing two starts and large parts of two other games, he threw for 3,389 yards and 25 touchdowns with 11 interceptions — the biggest weakness of his game. But over the last two seasons, Love is one of only two quarterbacks — with Detroit's Jared Goff — to throw at least 25 touchdown passes with a passer rating of 95-plus. Since becoming the Packers starter in 2023, he's thrown for multiple TD passes in 19 games, tied for third in the league over the last two seasons. "It throws me off just how comfortable he is and just how the ball comes off his hands," Gary said in the NFL's X post announcing Love's ranking. "Easy, man. I don't know if he's really got his eyes open or even thinking about it." Some opponents also spoke in the video about what makes Love such a threat. "The accuracy of the ball — deep shots, intermediate routes — he kind of has everything," Minnesota Vikings defensive tackle Harrison Phillips said. So far, Love and Gary are the only two Packers players to make the list, but cornerback Xavier McKinney has a good chance to join them.

Former Browns QB Baker Mayfield takes shot at former team amidst complicated QB situation
Former Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield recently discussed his former team's quarterback situation on the podcast New Heights. The show, hosted by NFL stars Travis and Jason Kelce, covered the current state of the Browns' quarterback depth chart among other topics with Mayfield. When it came time to discuss the Browns' quarterbacks, Mayfield made it clear he no longer cared about the team's direction: 'I plead the fifth. When I was healthy, I was starting to get pretty damn good there. Not my problem anymore,' said Mayfield. The Browns moved on from their 2018 first overall pick for several obvious reasons. In his fourth year with the team, Mayfield had his worst statistical season, which resulted in only six wins and a very disappointing end to the 2021 campaign. He finished his final year in Cleveland with a 63.6 PFF grade, ranking 40th among all eligible NFL quarterbacks. When it was time to decide between extending a well-known, declining quarterback or making a change, Cleveland opted to pursue other options. The end of Mayfield's time in Cleveland came with the official announcement of the Browns acquiring quarterback Deshaun Watson via trade. While many fans felt this was the wrong decision, the team was not in a position to risk more time with Mayfield—especially if he was seeking a large contract extension. Instead, the Browns continued their search for a franchise quarterback.
