Report: Steelers, Niners getting new alternates
Charles LeClaire-USA TODAY Sports / Reuters
Two NFL franchises are apparently expanding their wardrobes.
The Pittsburgh Steelers will reveal on May 30 a new alternate to replace the "bumblebee" look they last wore in 2016, Joe Rutter of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reports.
The new jersey will join the Steelers' rotation, which currently features home, away, and Color Rush uniforms.
The San Francisco 49ers are also expected to introduce a new alternate for this season, a source told David Fucillo of Niners Nation. Fucillo speculates that they'll make the announcement May 23 at their state-of-the-franchise event.
The Niners haven't confirmed whether they'll keep their all-black Color Rush uniform.
