Texans to Unveil New Uniforms Before 2024 NFL Draft
Houston will formally debut their new uniforms before the 2024 NFL Draft. The Houston Texans have stated via Drew Dougherty’s mailbag that they will unveil their new uniforms before the 2024 NFL Draft: Houston will feature four new outfits, including the widely anticipated “H-Town Blue” colorway as an accent to the main colors. Despite the new clothes, the famed lone star bull logo with stay.
This blue colorway, obviously a reference to the Houston Oilers outfits, will come with much fanfare and controversy as the division rival Tennessee Titans began wearing Oilers’ uniforms this year as an alternate to their usual getup. This, of course, went over horribly with the Houston crowd, who may now exact their retribution by stealing the color back after sweeping the Titans this season.
Both Texans owner Cal McNair and Chief Marketing Officer Doug Vosik have previewed the new blue hue earlier this year. Now, with a young team that defines the phrase “new hotness,” it’ll be intriguing to watch what fresh look they’ll bring to the franchise in 2024 and beyond. The Houston Texans have made virtually no changes to their uniform since their inception in 2002, and even though they continue to look sharp in their 22nd season – along with some new flashy, very red uniform combinations debuted this season – it’ll be refreshing to see a wholly new aesthetic for the first time in franchise history.
What do you think it’s going to look like? I think we’re going to see a slightly lighter navy main colorway for the pants and jersey, the classic Battle Red accenting the shoulders, outseams, and numbers, along with the “H-town blue” joining the blues on the shoulder, while accenting the jersey in another spot in some new, transformative way that’ll bring some real pizzazz to the new look. I imagine Houston will also preserve the strong, horn-like serifs that currently decorate the shoulder pads, although maybe muted a little more.
What do you think though? Will it be more of the same or something entirely out of left field? Will this be more of a uniform update, a remix of the old school Oilers appearance, or something altogether new? We’ll know for sure in April, but until then, let us know your predictions in the comments below! Or, bid farewell to the lovely red, white, and blue jerseys we’ve all come to cherish dear
