It never made sense that teams can't have a second helmet to match third uniforms. So long as the helmet is up to current safety standards it really shouldn't matter. But to be fair the NFL is WAY to anal about the uniforms anyway.

The Philadelphia Eagles submitted to the NFL an amendment that would allow clubs to have an alternate helmet in a color to match a third uniform.


Chairman and CEO Jeffrey Lurie explained on Tuesday night from the NFL Annual Meeting that he wants to incorporate the Kelly green jerseys, but not without a matching helmet. The Eagles pulled the proposal because it was not going to pass, but remain committed to getting this accomplished.


"I want to see us use Kelly green as our alternate and Thursday night-type of uniform. The only thing blocking us is we can't get the Kelly green helmet yet. That's what we're waiting for," Lurie said. "We're going to keep pushing at it. ... My hope is that we'll be able to get it done by next March."
