The NFL is taking rivalry games to a new level in 2025. In an attempt to play up big games between some of the biggest adversaries in the sport, teams from the AFC East and NFC West will don new rivalry jerseys for select matchups.
The league unveiled those rivalry uniforms Thursday, and they received high marks from fans. The Buffalo Bills, in particular, stole the show with a sleek, white uniform meant to evoke the snowy weather in the area during December games.
The Bills’ rivalry uniforms stand out as arguably the biggest departure from a team’s standard jersey. The Miami Dolphins altered the primary color on their jersey, going with black. The hints of orange and teal sprinkled throughout the uniform make it identifiable as a Dolphins jersey.
The New England Patriots and New York Jets took a similar approach to their rivalry jerseys. Both feature colors you would normally associate with those franchises, but with a different shade.

The Jets opted for a dark green as the primary color on their rivalry jerseys.
The Patriots went with a darker shade of blue.
Each AFC East team will wear those uniforms once in 2025 when their play their biggest rival. The Dolphins will be the first to don the rivalry jersey, wearing it during a Sept. 29 game against the Jets.
The Bills will wear their rivalry jersey Oct. 5 against the Patriots. New England will don their rivalry uniform Nov. 13 against the Bills.
The Jets will be the final team in the AFC East to wear the rivalry uniform. That will happen Dec. 7 against the Dolphins.
Over in the NFC West, the San Francisco 49ers opted for the boldest redesign, which focused on black.
The Los Angeles Rams didn’t go that far, instead using a shade of blue so dark that it evokes midnight.
Both the Seattle Seahawks and Arizona Cardinals decided to go with white jersey, both featuring their own unique design. For the Seahawks, that includes stripes near the shoulder pads and a helmet that is “iridescent green with a metallic chrome finish,” per the team’s website.
The Cardinals’ jerseys contain spots, which are meant to evoke the sand and clay of the Arizona desert.
Of that group, the Cardinals will be the first to show off their rivalry uniform. The team will wear it during its Sept. 25 game against the Seahawks.

The Rams are up next, and will don their rivalry uniform against the Seahawks on Nov. 16. Seattle will get its chance a little over a month later, and will wear the rivalry uniform against the Rams on Dec. 18.
The 49ers are the last team to wear their rivalry uniform, and will do so Jan. 4 against the Seahawks.
Teams from the AFC East and NFC West are the only franchises that will wear rivalry uniforms this season. But every other division is expected to get their own rivalry uniforms in the coming years, per ESPN. The AFC South and NFC North are expected to debut their rivalry jerseys in 2026, with the NFC East and AFC West taking 2027 and the AFC North and NFC South finishing things off in 2028.

College Football QB Power Rankings: Arch Manning falls from top 50, TCU’s Josh Hoover ascends to No. 1 spot
The top two signal-callers from the much-maligned quarterback class of 2023 stumbled out of the gate Saturday, as Texas' Arch Manning and UCLA's Nico Iamaleava both struggled in Week 1 losses. Their poor showings led to a major shakeup in this week's quarterback power rankings.Manning's performance in Texas' 14-7 loss at Ohio State was particularly jarring. The former No. 1 overall prospect didn't complete a pass of more than nine yards until the fourth quarter. Iamaleava wasn't much better in his UCLA debut, hitting just 11 of 22 passes for 136 yards in a 43-10 loss at Utah.Both Manning and Iamaleava dropped out of the top 50 altogether. The biggest risers were Florida State's Tommy Castellanos and Auburn's Jackson Arnold, who used their legs to vault into the top 10 with impressive debuts for new teams.These rankings are not a […]
Fantasy football rankings 2025: Sleepers, top picks from NFL model that nailed James Cook’s big season
The 49ers are looking to be the latest team to complete the last-to-first transformation in their division, which has been done in four of the last five seasons, and if San Francisco can accomplish that, there's a good chance they'll have some players outperforming their ADP in 2025 Fantasy football drafts. One of the benefits of coming in last place is an easier schedule the following year, so can 49ers like Brock Purdy, Christian McCaffrey and George Kittle finish toward the very top of their positions in Fantasy points.The 49ers already have additional injuries early in training camp, on top of Brandon Aiyuk, who will miss at least the first few weeks of the season following his knee injury last year. Aiyuk's early-season absence drops him in 2025 Fantasy football rankings, but he's still someone to be drafted, and he […]

Bill Belichick’s UNC Debut Exposed Flaws — But It’s Too Soon to Panic
Bill Belichick's debut as North Carolina's head coach might have been the worst game of his head coaching career.The 48 points UNC gave up to TCU on Monday night were more than any Belichick-coached team gave up in any game during his 29 seasons as an NFL head coach. The 48-14 final was also tied for the second-largest margin of defeat in Belichick's head coaching career. After Belichick's Tar Heels committed a multitude of errors that allowed the Horned Frogs to score 41 straight points in Monday's game, FOX Sports lead college football analyst Joel Klatt admitted that he's a bit concerned about UNC. However, he has some hope that the six-time Super Bowl-winning head coach can work some of his magic, while getting some scheduling luck, to right the ship in Chapel Hill. "Am I worried about North Carolina? Yeah, a […]
