After their set of new jerseys were inadvertently leaked earlier in the day, the Detroit Lions released their full set of uniforms on Thursday night at Ford Field in front of a crowd of media and season-ticket holders.
While the majority of Detroit’s uniform changes were minor tweaks (ie: adding a few stripes and the more significant change to the jersey font), the most notable development was the reintroduction of the black uniforms. The black jerseys were revealed earlier in the day, but upon the full release, Detroit revealed a set of black pants to pair with that uniform, which is topped with the team’s blue-chrome alternate helmet—which had a few new tweaks of its own.
