The New Orleans Saints revealed the uniform combination they will wear during their Week 15 game on “Monday Night Football” against their Indianapolis Colts: black jerseys paired with black pants. The announcement was made in a post from the team’s official Twitter account, which included a brief video of running back Alvin Kamara celebrating a big play in EA Sports’ Madden NFL 20. You can find it where it’s embedded below, or by clicking this link.
It’s been a common look this season, with the Saints most recently using it in last week’s game with the San Francisco 49ers (and six times this season in total, going 4-2).
For curious fans: the black-on-Black combo look carries a solid win percentage in the modern era, going back in 2006. We’d be remiss to not mention the alternate gold jerseysused during a 2002 game against the Minnesota Vikings, which they lost 32-31. The gold jerseys haven’t been seen again.
Here is every uniform combination used by the Saints during the Sean Payton era, listed by winning percentage:
- White jerseys, white pants: 3-0 (1.000)
- “Color Rush” alternates: 6-2 (.750)
- Black and gold throwbacks: 2-1 (.667)
- Black jerseys, gold pants: 23-13 (.639)
- White jerseys, black pants: 38-25 (.603)
- Black jerseys, black pants: 40-27 (.597)
- White jerseys, gold pants: 31-24 (.564)
