The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are bringing back their creamsicle uniforms after a decade on ice. What other NFL throwback uniforms need resurrecting?

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are officially bringing their classic creamsicle uniforms back in 2023 after more than a decade-long hiatus.

Given the NFL is changing a longstanding rule about teams wearing different helmets throughout the season, we could see plenty more NFL clubs resurrecting classic NFL throwback uniforms that have simply been on ice for far too long.

Which are the top three NFL throwback uniforms that need to make a comeback ASAP? Let’s make some picks.

NFL Throwback uniform no. 1: Denver Broncos

The Denver Broncos changed their uniforms back in the 1997 season and that has been their look ever since. The classic “D” logo on the helmet has since made a comeback with the team’s Color Rush uniforms but with the darker navy blue helmet modification.

It’s high time the Denver Broncos bring back their uniforms from the 80s and 90s, the uniforms that were worn during some of the franchise’s formative years and during the majority of John Elway’s playing career.

Broncos fans have been clamoring for these uniforms to make a comeback for years and they truly are one of the top NFL throwback uniforms out there.

There’s something about the simplicity of the uniform and the pop of that classic logo. The orange and blue tones work perfectly together, especially on the white uniform with the blue numbers/lettering and orange pop on the side with the stripes.

The current Denver Broncos uniforms will go down as an iconic look, but these uniforms need to be back in the mix ASAP.
