Patriots wearing away whites for Super Bowl

The New England Patriots will be the home team in Super Bowl LII against the Philadelphia Eagles, but they've elected to wear their road white jerseys.

The Patriots announced the decision on Twitter on Tuesday morning, noting the team is 3-0 in white in Super Bowls under head coach Bill Belichick.

New England was wearing blue in each of its Super Bowl losses to the New York Giants under Belichick's tenure. However, the Pats won their first two Super Bowls -- XXXVI against the Rams and XXXVIII against the Panthers -- in their typical home blues.

The Denver Broncos, the designated home team in Super Bowl 50, also elected to wear road whites in the contest, which they won.
