NFL Uniforms: Grades for all 32 teams’ look in 2020

San Francisco 49ers: C+
I won’t spend more time on the annoying gray facemasks again because that’s what part three in the series was for. Depending on the lighting or uniform, the shade of reds don’t always match. I’ll give them a big kudos for being the NFL’s lone team to successfully match their golds, though. Even though it’s meaningful to the fanbase, there is barely any design to the jersey. I also think it’s unnatural that the team’s home jerseys have no gold when the rest of the outfit is filled with it.
Arizona Cardinals: C+
The numbers on Arizona’s uniforms are nice, but there are way too many unnecessary details on them. The random stripe under the armpit, the thin black line stretching all over the jersey, the collar’s design disruption. Yet none of those compare to the biggest discrepancy: the home and away designs don’t even match. Why does one uniform have a shoulder yoke and side stripe while the other one doesn’t? On top of that, no team makes gray facemasks look worse than the Cardinals.

Los Angeles Rams: D-
For the second time during this the series, I defer my thoughts to my response from an earlier article:
"“Where to begin? The strange “bone-colored” away look, the unnecessary name tags (we know you’re the Rams), that weird tag sticking out of the back of the jersey. The list goes on. I had such high hopes for this rebrand, then they went and had kids design bad soccer uniforms.”"
I never thought I’d dislike a team with blue and gold uniforms, but alas, the Rams may have done it.

Seattle Seahawks: A
Seattle has one of the best outfits in the league. The navy, neon and grey all work simultaneously to make a gorgeous, modern look without stepping too much on each other’s feet. The intricate design adds flavor and uniqueness. The array of combos the team can trot out is an added bonus, too. Even the all-neon uniforms — which can be hit-or-miss depending on the lighting — are fine.
