That’s a lot of green: Seahawks uniforms are Action Green vs Packers

The Seattle Seahawks have decided that when the Packers come to Lumen Field on Sunday, they’ll out-green the team from Green Bay with their uniforms.

Seahawks Breakdown: Sizing up the razor-tight NFC West race

For the first time in the Mike Macdonald era, Seattle is breaking out its most controversial look for the primetime matchup on Sunday night: the “Action Green” uniforms. That would be neon green jerseys, neon green pants, and, mercifully, the usual navy helmets.

As has been customary this season, the Seahawks announced their uniform choice late Wednesday morning.

The Packers have not indicated what their uniforms will be for the Sunday night matchup between two of the NFC’s prospective playoff teams, but the odds-on favorite is that they will go with their usual road combination of white jersey, gold pants and gold helmet.

Whether or not you like Action Green, it’s hard to argue with its track record. The Seahawks are 5-2 when dressing like Kermit the Frog, a look they have usually reserved for night games since the uniforms made their debut in 2016.

The Seahawks added 1990s throwback uniforms to the rotation in 2023, and that has seemed to take precedent over Action Green as the first choice for big games. But Seattle has already worn the throwbacks twice this season, which is the maximum, so now it’s the neon look’s turn.

Don’t be surprised if the Seahawks break out the Action Green uniforms again soon, as Seattle will have a Thursday night game on Dec. 26 at Chicago. There’s always the possibility the Seahawks opt for the even more rare combo of the Action Green jersey with navy pants that time.
