Buccaneers and Seahawks to wear throwback jerseys in Week 5 meeting to celebrate 50th seasons
The Seattle Seahawks and Tampa Bay Buccaneers will both wear throwback jerseys when they square off on Week 5 at Lumen Field. Celebrating their 50th seasons in the NFL, both sides will wear threads from their inaugural campaigns in 1976. On Friday, the teams announced on social media that they will be sporting the vintage kits and helmets when they meet on October 5. The Bucs will wear the white version of the Creamsicle jersey and the Seahawks will wear their old royal blue ensembles. The looks are a nod to their first meeting in their debut seasons in the NFL. Seattle defeated Tampa Bay 13-10 in one of their two wins to finish 2-12. The Buccaneers struggled in their first season, going 0-14. Since then, both teams have had their share of success. The Buccaneers won titles in 2003 against the Oakland Raiders and the Kansas City Chiefs in 2021. The Seahawks won their rings in 2014 by beating the Denver Broncos. Aside from the Week 5 game, the Buccaneers will be wearing the alternate version of their old jerseys in their home opener against the New York Jets in Week 3. The Seahawks finished last season with a 10-7 record but missed the postseason for the second straight year. Tampa Bay topped the NFC South with a 10-7 record and lost to Washington in a wild-card game. So far this offseason, Seattle traded two-time Pro Bowl receiver DK Metcalf to the Steelers and veteran quarterback Geno Smith to the Raiders. In exchange, they received second- and third-round picks, which ultimately resulted in the selections of tight end Elijah Arroyo from Miami and quarterback Jalen Milroe from Alabama. Seattle also made a big splash by signing Pro Bowl quarterback Sam Darnold to a three-year deal worth $100.5 million after his successful stint in Minnesota. Tampa Bay re-signed Chris Godwin to a three-year, $66 million deal after he suffered a dislocated ankle that ended his season early. The 29-year-old was set to enter free agency before the Bucs extended his time in Tampa Bay with $44 million in guaranteed money. The Buccaneers and Seahawks' game, dubbed the Expansion Bowl, will air on NBC.
