Not all uniforms are new. Some teams, like the Titans and Jaguars, will wear the same "Color Rush" attire they debuted last season. Others, like the Chiefs and Bears, will simply wear alternate pants they have worn in the past with their standard home jerseys and helmets.
Nine teams will be unable to wear their "Color Rush" duds in 2016, as they would force a color clash with their opponent. For example, both the Patriots and Texans unveiled navy-blue uniforms. The Texans will be forced to wear their usual white uniforms for their Thursday night game against the Patriots.
A closer look at some of the standout new uniforms below:
