49ers could wear throwback alternate uniform up to three times this season

The San Francisco 49ers introduced a new alternate uniform this offseason, switching from their all blacks to a throwback look. The new uniforms reflect the team’s mid-90s look, which itself was a throwback to what the team wore in 1955 and 1956. You can check out a gallery of photos from the reveal here.

The 49ers will wear these alternates at least once this season, but it sounds like the team could have the option of wearing them up to three times. Previously, teams could wear an alternate two times, and then had to wear their “Color Rush” uniform once (for Thursday Night Football).
