Drake Maye teases possible uniform change for Patriots in 2025
Maye is likely referring to the royal blue uniforms that the team wore for much of the 1990s. In 1993, the team did its first uniform redesign in the history of the franchise, ditching the 'Pat Patriot' uniforms for the royal blues. Those uniforms became synonymous with Drew Bledsoe's time as the Patriots' quarterback. The franchise went from the bottom of the league to playing for the Super Bowl just a few years after making the uniform swap with Bledsoe emerging as one of the league's top quarterbacks. As a result, the uniforms have been dubbed the 'Bledsoe Blues' by many Patriots fans. Get Starting Point A guide through the most important stories of the morning, delivered Monday through Friday. Enter Email Sign Up Despite New England having one of its best stretches of football in the history of the franchise with those uniforms, it ditched the royal blues at the turn of the century. Instead, the Patriots began to wear navy blue uniforms as their primary home jersey in 2000. The navy blue jerseys were the Patriots' primary look during their dynasty run, wearing those uniforms for 20 seasons before making their navy color rush jerseys their primary uniforms in 2020. Advertisement As the NFL requires teams to wear their primary uniforms for at least five seasons before making a change, the Patriots can switch their primary uniforms for the 2025 season. The team hasn't said yet if it plans to switch their primary uniforms in 2025, but they've dropped some hints that they could bring back their royal blue uniforms from the 1990s. In their 'Happy New Year' post on social media in January, the Patriots shared an illustration that included a fan wearing a royal blue Ben Coates jersey. A toast to '25 🎆 — New England Patriots (@Patriots) The Patriots might have dropped another hint in their Valentine's Day post. Their illustration in that post included the white away jersey they wore when they switched to make royal blue their primary color in 1993. Additionally, the illustration included their red 'Pat Patriot' jersey, their navy blue jersey from 2000-2019, and the helmet they wore for their first season in 1960. Their current primary uniforms, though, were missing from the illustration. Advertisement We love y'alllll 💖💝💘 — New England Patriots (@Patriots) The NFL has recently changed the rules to allow teams to have up to three helmets in their rotation, increasing it from one in 2022. That allowed the Patriots to bring back the 'Pat Patriot' uniforms that year and it appears they might bring back the first helmets the team ever wore. Of course, they didn't wear those helmets with the royal blue jerseys in the 1990s. But the Patriots could mix and match them with their royal blue looks starting in 2025 in some capacity. Regardless, it seems like the royal blue uniforms are returning in 2025, at least if Maye is to be believed. It's just a question of whether they'll be their primary uniforms or one of their two alternate looks.
