The Baltimore Ravens announced their uniform selection ahead of their Division Round playoff game against the Buffalo Bills on Jan. 19 — and a rare combination at that.
Lamar Jackson's team will go with a whiteout look: white jersey and white pants. They've only worn that twice in the 2024 season: a Week 1 27-20 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs and a Week 12 30-23 win over the Los Angeles Chargers.
Given that the Bills went with their classic home combo of blue jerseys and white pants — which they are undefeated in this season — Baltimore was essentially limited to a white jersey for this game.

For those who are superstitious, the Ravens have played the Bills four times with Jackson at the helm and split the contests 2-2. Baltimore did not wear white on white in those games, although it won with black pants and white jerseys in 2019 and lost with purple pants and white jerseys in a 2021 playoff game.
Additionally, the Ravens have never worn all-white uniforms in the playoffs with Jackson starting.
Historically, the all-white uniforms are one of the Ravens' least successful combinations: From 1996-2020, they were just 43-56 (.434). However, given that they essentially only wear white jerseys on the road, that says more about home-field advantage than players looking sleeker in white.
Jackson has historically been strong away from Baltimore — his 36-16 road record (.692) is close to his 38-13 home mark (.745) — but this will be a chance for him to earn a winning record on the road in the playoffs after starting 1-1. All while looking cold as ice, likely in snowy weather.
