Philadelphia has one of the top uniform combinations in the NFL, and if DeVonta Smith had his way, the Midnight Green home jersey would become an alternate or throwback. Fans and Eagles players have clamored for a jersey switch, and while the Kelly Green isn't likely to become a permanent switch, it could be worn more often.
Jordan Schultz of Fox Sports reports that the NFL is updating its uniform policy to allow teams to wear throwback or alternate uniforms up to four times per season.
Philadelphia last wore Kelly Green jerseys (and helmets) in the 2010 season. Shortly after, the NFL implemented a rule requiring teams to have only one color as a safety precaution.
The Eagles will now have Kelly Green and the all black helmet and uniform combinations going forward.

Pitt Football Defense Preview 2025: The Panther Pass Rush Will Dominate
It's the Pitt defense. You know how this pass rush will be otherworldly, with the plays behind the line coming from everywhere. Pitt was sixth in the nation in sacks and fourth in tackles for loss. And, oddly enough, considering all of the help, the secondary will get hammered for way too many yards with a style that gives up big plays, but watch out. Pitt is loaded with returning starters, and as always, it starts with … 2025 Pitt PreviewPitt Offense Breakdown Season Prediction, Win Total, Keys to Season - The pass rush will once again be amazing.

Blaine Spires (Utah State) made six sacks and 12 tackles for loss over the last two years with the Aggies, but missed almost all of last year injured. - The linebackers are among the best in the ACC. Rasheem Biles and Braylan Lovelace combined for 135 stops, and Kyle Louis led the team with seven sacks, to go along with 82 tackles, in an all-star season. - It's always rough statistically to be in the Pitt secondary, but the talent is there. Javon McIntyre heads a solid group of safeties, and Rashad Battle is a huge corner who broke up eight passes.

Pitt Football Offense Preview 2025: Big Plays Are Coming for the Panthers
The offense wasn't awful, but it was painfully the seven-game winning streak to start the season, the passing game was great early on, the ground game was fine, and it was more about tweaking than overhauling. And then came the problems. The third down conversions weren't there, and turnovers became a problem. Pitt was 2-6 when turning it over multiple times. But there's lots of experience and firepower returning, starting with … 2025 Pitt Preview Pitt Defense BreakdownSeason Prediction, Win Total, Keys to Season- The Panthers have one of those guys at quarterback. Eli Holstein is 6-4, 225 pounds, and can wing the ball all over the yard. The former Alabama transfer stepped in and threw for over 2,200 yards and 17 touchdowns, and ran for 328 yards and three scores before getting banged up late in the season. - The receivers are terrific, even with top target Konata Mumpfield gone. Kenny Johnson on the outside, Censere Lee at flanker, and Raphael Williams - "Poppi" led the team with six touchdown catches - are back. So is second-leading receiver …- Running back Desmond Reid tied Mumpfield with 52 catches and led the way with 966 rushing yards and five scores. He's an All-ACC caliber talent, and Justin Cook (East Stroudsburg) is a receiver and return man who'll work as a running back. - The line allowed way too many sacks and wasn't great for the ground game, but it's experienced on the right side, and gets back Lyndon Cooper at center.

Former NFL stars Vick, Jackson to battle in Philly as HBCU coaches
Former Philadelphia Eagles teammates Michael Vick and DeSean Jackson will square off as opposing coaches in 2025 -- and they'll do so at the home they used to share. Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference rivals Norfolk State and Delaware State will meet on Thursday, Oct. 30, at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia. The Eagles announced the news Thursday featuring statements from Vick and Jackson, who are entering their first years as head coaches at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs). Vick is from the Norfolk, Va., area and took over Norfolk State in December. Jackson was hired by Delaware State soon after. It is the first head coaching position for both men, who played together for the Eagles from 2009-13. 'This is a tremendous opportunity for our student-athletes to play in a world-class venue on a world-class stage,' Vick said in a statement. 'Coach Jackson and I made so many unforgettable memories together at Lincoln Financial Field -- this stadium holds special meaning in my NFL career. I am thrilled to be a part of this historic moment and want to thank the Philadelphia Eagles, Norfolk State and Delaware State for their collaboration to make this happen.' 'I came to Delaware State University to start a new phase of my career with a unique institution that cares about its students and is helping to transform their futures. I know Coach Vick feels the same way at Norfolk,' Jackson said. 'A part of that transformation is opening our students and scholar athletes up to a whole new set of experiences at the highest level. For our teams to be playing in Philly, at the Linc, on the field Coach Vick and I called home for many years will be special for our players, our coaching staffs, our alumni and fans, and for HBCU culture around the country.' Vick spent five of his 13 NFL seasons with the Eagles and made 42 starts at quarterback for the team. He was a Pro Bowl selection in 2010 and overlapped all five years with Jackson, who was in the prime of his career and made the Pro Bowl in 2009, 2010 and 2013.
