NFL UniformsNFL 2026 Jersey Redesigns: Every Team That Changed Its Look
Every team that updated its look for the 2026 season — and which redesigns are worth buying.
The 2026 NFL Uniform Cycle
The NFL’s uniform cycle rotates every three to five seasons, and 2026 is an above-average year for redesigns. Several teams have updated their primary wordmark, modified their striping pattern, or introduced new color accents. Here’s every team that changed its look, and which redesigns are worth adding to your collection.
Wordmark Updates
The most visible 2026 changes are wordmark updates — teams refining the typography on the chest. Wordmark changes are the easiest to spot from the stands and on TV, and the new jerseys are produced in a single first-year run. If you want the updated look, 2026 is the only year to get it before the next cycle.
Striping and Accent Changes
Several teams updated shoulder stripes, sleeve cuffs, and collar accents. The changes are subtle from the upper deck but visible on close-up photography and on the field. These redesigns tend to be popular with fans who want the freshest possible version of their team’s jersey.
Throwback and Alternate Editions
2026 also brought new throwback and alternate editions to several teams. Throwbacks are typically limited to one or two games per season and produced in lower volumes; if you want the throwback jersey, early-season buying is essential.
Which NFL teams redesigned their jerseys for 2026?
Several teams updated wordmarks, striping, and accents for the 2026 season. The complete list is in our redesign guide above. Teams that change wordmarks produce a single first-year run, so 2026 is the only year to get the current look before the next cycle.
Are NFL redesign jerseys worth buying?
Yes if you’re a fan of the team and want the freshest look. No if you’re collecting for value — most redesign jerseys don’t appreciate because they’re not championship-related. The value is in wearing them, not flipping them.
How long does an NFL jersey design last?
The NFL uniform cycle runs three to five years. Teams refresh wordmarks, striping, or accents within that window; major redesigns (new color scheme, new logo) happen every 8-10 years. The 2026 cycle is a mid-cycle refresh year for several teams.
Do redesigned jerseys cost more?
No — Nike’s NFL jersey pricing is standardized across the league. Authentic runs $159.99-$169.99, Swingman (Limited in NFL terminology) runs $119.99-$129.99. Redesigns don’t change the price tier.
What’s the difference between Authentic and Limited NFL jerseys?
Authentic jerseys are the closest match to on-field construction: heavier fabric, sewn-on tackle-twill numbers. Limited (Nike’s NFL term for Swingman) uses lighter breathable mesh and screen-printed graphics. Both are officially licensed; the difference is weight and construction, not legitimacy.
Can I still buy 2025 NFL jerseys?
Yes — previous-season jerseys are typically discounted by 30-50% once the new cycle launches. If you don’t need the freshest look, last year’s jersey is the value buy. The trade-off is that the team’s current player movement may have changed.
Are NFL throwback jerseys limited edition?
Yes — throwbacks are typically produced in lower volumes and don’t restock once popular sizes thin out. Throwback games are usually once or twice per season, so the jersey gets worn a handful of times but is a unique piece of the fan kit.
Which NFL redesigns are bestsellers?
The teams with the largest national fanbases — Cowboys, Chiefs, 49ers, Packers — typically lead redesign sales. Within those, the quarterback’s jersey outsells every other player by 3-5x. Buy the QB if you want the deepest size run and best resale.
