bummer. why is that?

They have to continue wearing the silver helmets. Team won't do throwbacks with silver helmets. Hence the navy

be cool to see them in their future jerseys. The 2080 ones. When metamaterials are as common as breathable fabric is today.

Player safety. Can't use different helmets.
