The Eagles posted to social media this week that, as the home team, they have chosen to rep green jerseys for the biggest matchup of the year.
Philadelphia has worn green uniforms in all three of its prior Super Bowl appearances. The Eagles’ first appearance was in Super Bowl XV in 1980 versus the Oakland Raiders when they lost 27-10. In 2004 Philadelphia faced off against the New England Patriots in Super Bowl XXXIX and lost 24-21. However, years later, in 2017, the Eagles won their first and only Super Bowl, a 41-33 victory over the New England Patriots in Super Bowl LII. Now the team will once again wear their most traditional uniform.
