All NFL Thursday Night Games Will Feature Color Rush Uniforms For '16 Season

All Thursday night NFL games this coming season will be "'color rush' games, in which the participating teams will wear monochromatic uniforms," according to Bob Labriola of STEELERS.com. Steelers President Art Rooney II said of the Thanksgiving night Steelers-Colts matchup, "It'll be Indianapolis' call in terms of what uniform they wear, and so I haven't heard yet from them what their color rush uniform is. We'll have to wait and see on that one what color we'll be wearing." Labriola reported each NFL team "was able to choose a color for its color rush, and the default choice for each team is to be white." Assuming the Colts choose blue as their color rush, the Steelers "would wear white." Should the Colts decide on white for that game, the Steelers "would debut an all-black uniform." Rooney: "We had some presentations from Nike in terms of what the options were, and we decided our color-option was going to be black, and the default option is going to be white" (STEELERS.com, 4/14).
