The Detroit Lions released their 2017 uniforms on Thursday night in front of a bunch of excited fans. The crowd gathered in the stands of Ford Field, which is currently going through serious renovations, to see the new jerseys, helmets and pants.
As expected, the Lions revealed four different uniforms: a home, away, throwback and Color Rush version.
Here’s a look at the new uniforms, as revealed by the team’s official Facebook page late on Thursday night:
