With the NFL's updated rule allowing teams to wear multiple helmets over the course of the season for different design purposes, it was announced that the Eagles would be using a black helmet in 2022. It's the first time the Birds have had a helmet that's neither green nor white.ย
The schedule for when the black helmet would be used this season came out a bit ago and it'll make its debut on Sunday Night Football this week when the Eagles host the Green Bay Packers. Fittingly, the Eagles will be going with their all-black uniforms to pair with the new helmets.
The Eagles announced this on Tuesday morning with a hype video that looks like an early 2000s disaster movie that I would've gladly seen in theaters:ย

Here's a shot of captains Jake Elliott, Lane Johnson, Jason Kelce and Fletcher Cox sporting the new look:

Perhaps Aaron Rodgers shouldn't even step off the bus on Sunday after this.ย
