It almost feels like a different NFL team is announcing new uniform changes each week this offseason. It’s a move the New Orleans Saints could maybe get involved with; we’ve already made our stance clear, advocating for the popular “Color Rush” gold-on-white alternates to be promoted as the team’s full-time away jerseys.
Other suggestions have ranged from reviving the old-school black and gold throwbacks to introducing black helmets instead of gold, as well as seldom-seen logos like the Louisiana Saints patch that once decorated jersey sleeves. But if you were to ask All-Pro Saints defensive end Cameron Jordan to share his take, he has a creative request: bring back the gold jerseys.
Now, Jordan doesn’t want to give up his current threads (he cleared that up in a follow-up tweet, blaming a typo), but he would like to redeem the ill-fated gold jerseys. The Saints last wore them in 2002, during a loss to the Minnesota Vikings, and Jordan would love the opportunity to make up for that defeat while wearing such a unique look. What do you think? Should the Saints take his advice?
