HOUSTON – The wait is over! On Tuesday, the Houston Texans released their long-awaited new uniforms.
The team released four new jerseys and three new helmets. They retained their classic navy, white and red jerseys with brand new numbers. They also added a chrome red facemask and new horn decals to their “Battle Red” helmets.
Perhaps the most sweeping adjustment was their new H-Town-themed alternate uniforms. They feature a new lighter shade of blue and the “H” logo that Texans’ owner Cal McNair debuted last week.
The new threads have created quite a frenzy in the Houston area. So much so, that the statue of Sam Houston in Huntsville is wearing some of the new gear!
