After wearing them for just five years, the Jacksonville Jaguars are ready to make a change to their uniforms.
The team announced a few weeks ago that they’ll be unveiling a new look for the 2018 season this upcoming April right before the NFL draft.
The Jaguars also confirmed today that the team will wear new uniforms and helmets for the upcoming 2018 season. The final design will be unveiled later this spring. As an added benefit, current US Assure Club and Suites season ticket holders and Fields Auto Group Terrace Suite season ticket holders will receive an authentic 2018 personalized Jaguars jersey when they renew their seats for next fall.

The biggest difference is the absence of two-tone gold and matte black helmet design which was reported last month by AP reporter Mark Long.

It seems like the Jaguars are listening to fans who hated the previous iteration of the helmets and love the teal uniforms. We’ll have to wait until April to see what the Jaguars officially have in store for their new uniforms.
