The new "Super Bowl Era" alternate uniforms unveiled by the Washington Commanders earlier this week continue to be a talking point among the fanbase for many reasons.
Firstly, uniforms are always controversial. You can't please everybody when it comes to the threads a team wears. Factor in the Commanders' name and likeness history and you can pretty quickly find yourself digging a rabbit hole.
But mostly, people are talking about the uniform more than usual because this isn't expected to be just an alternate in the long run, but part of a uniform overhaul for the Commanders. And recently, Gridiron Uniforms projected what that could look like.
The account on X posted a full uniform overhaul projection with for four different looks, including the already-revealed alternate and even a black set.
"Yellow pants and striped socks included, and, against my better judgement, a completely unnecessary black set, but I refuse to use a black helmet," wrote the author of the account and of the website, which "presents graphical representations of every uniform that has been worn in the NFL since 1920."

For those who missed it, multiple reports have indicated the Commanders' alternate look reveal are a taste of a plan to take the franchise's uniforms back to its previous look minus the Redskins logo. Radio host Kevin Sheehan has been discussing it since October.
"I have it on good authority that they are going to go back to something resembling the old uniforms sans the more recent Redskins logo," Sheehan said last week on the air. "It would be a rollout with [alternative uniform] opportunities in 2025 [. . .] In this alt opportunities this year I would imagine that at least in a couple of these we're gonna have a uniform that looks like the old uniform."

I don't know about you but if the uniforms look like what Gridiron Uniforms is projecting, it's looking like a great plan.
