The New England Patriots will get to wear a new look this coming season, at least for one game.
As was announced by the NFL and its apparel provider, Nike, the league is introducing a Rivalry program. The four teams from the AFC East, including the Patriots, as well as those from the NFC West will be first to participate during the 2025 season.
The Patriots and the other participating teams will wear specially-designed Rivalries uniforms “rooted extensively in local community insights” during one home game against a division rival this fall. The matchups themselves will be announced after the NFL schedule release on May 14, with the uniform designs to be unveiled before the first Rivalry game.
