The Atlanta Falcons revealed their new uniforms on Wednesday, and well, they're pretty underwhelming.
Have a look for yourselves:

The "ATL" above the numbers just doesn't look right these new jerseys. The best one is the uniform pictured all the way to the right — it's clean and doesn't have the odd lettering of the Atlanta abbreviation.
The Falcons posted a video with the meaning behind the jerseys, wanting something that defines Atlanta and doesn't just mimic what other teams have done.

Falcons owner Arthur Blank also shared a nice letter to go along with the uniform unveiling.

The uniforms are probably a little better than what the Los Angeles Rams did with their redesign, but it feels like they could've done something much better to excite both the fans and players.
