NY Jets will wear 'Legacy White' throwback uniforms for these two games during 2023 season

If the trade for four-time MVP QB Aaron Rodgers and the announcement of being on "Hard Knocks" on HBO this offseason wasn't enough, get ready Jets fans, because there's more exciting news heading your way.

The team announced Monday that it will be bringing back its "Legacy White" uniforms for two games this upcoming season in the Meadowlands.

The first appearance will be the home opener in Week 1 against QB Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills on "Monday Night Football" on ESPN. The second game they'll don the throwback jerseys will be on "Sunday Night Football" on NBC versus the reigning Super Bowl champions in QB Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 4.

In addition to the revitalization of the jerseys, co-owner and chairman Woody Johnson announced that the team will have the throwback Jets logo that the team used from 1978-97 at midfield.

New York is going with the strategy to bring back the "Legacy White" uniforms during these two specific matchups as it faces two of the best young QBs in the entire NFL in Mahomes and Allen at home in primetime. MetLife Stadium should be rocking with a ruckus crowd and a potential white out on hand.
