The New York Jets have finally unveiled their “Legacy Collection” uniform, which comes in three versions named Legacy Green, Legacy White, and Legacy Black. The novel uniforms have paid tribute to their historical significance and they will sport double-stripe shoulders and single-stripe pants.
The Super Bowl champion and four-time NFL Most Valuable Player, superstar quarterback, Aaron Rodgers, has returned to the facility for practice after recovering from his season-ending Achilles injury.

The squad had some fun with disclosing the new uniform as well. A prank was played on the Jets players as a person dressed in the new uniform was displayed like a mannequin, which led the players to believe that it was a statue. Some were completely pranked but others were well aware that it was a human beneath the dress.
Both quarterback Aaron Rodgers and cornerback Sauce Gardner were able to understand that it was a prank. Regarding the uniform, Woody Johnson, the chairman of the Jets, mentioned via New York Jets, “We work for the fans. They have consistently asked for us to return to our roots and we heard them. The new uniforms are explicitly designed to look and feel like the New York Jets while refreshing the club’s iconic logo – viewed by fans as our most identifiable mark.”
