Update: After a leaked photo of the Houston Texans’ new road uniforms went viral on Monday afternoon, chairman Cal McNair posted a photo of wide receivers Nico Collins and Tank Dell in the new threads on Reddit, adding, “Way more to come in April.”
While we don’t get a great look at the horn-shaped sleeve design, McNair’s photo reveals the Texans will be the third team in the NFL with perforated numbers, joining the Arizona Cardinals and Washington Commanders. A reflection in the back also shows a large red stripe with a smaller white stripe on the pants.
Original story: Although the Houston Texans won’t officially unveil their new uniforms until the week of the 2024 NFL Draft, which takes place on April 25-27, we may have captured our first glimpse at their upcoming road design thanks to a thread on Reddit.
We cannot confirm the legitimacy, but parts of the uniform suggest the leak is real, including the number (24 for 2024), number font – which features notches like the Texans’ wordmark on the chest – and the template, which is a modified version of Nike’s Vapor F.U.S.E. design.
A report from the Houston Chronicle also stated there would be four unique uniform designs rather than a repeat in various colors, including one that is traditional, another that’s an homage to H-Town Blue and one that’s “into this bull thing.”
The horn-like design on the sleeves of the supposed leak seemingly checks the “bull” box, while the lack of H-Town Blue on this specific design makes sense, as team television host Drew Dougherty said it will only appear on “some” of the uniforms.
Additionally, the Texans have never stated they’re moving away from Deep Steel Blue, as some people on social media believe. Dougherty simply said they would not see the exact uniforms they wore in their Wild Card win over the Cleveland Browns again.
