Eagles Set To Wear Fan Favorite Throwback Uniforms Twice in 2024
The Philadelphia Eagles were one of the biggest winners this offseason. After a disappointing end to the season, the Eagles made sure to add a blend of veterans and rookies.
It started in free agency when they signed Saquon Barkley, Bryce Huff, and Chauncey Gardner-Johnson. They continued to add playmakers in the draft, selecting Cooper DeJean and Quinyon Mitchell with their first two selections.
Now they are expected to be major contenders for the Super Bowl in 2024. The Eagles decided to keep the good news rolling as they announced they'll be wearing a fan-favorite throwback uniform next season.

Eagles News: Philadelphia Is Going To Wear Kelly Green Uniforms Twice
ESPN's Adam Schefter revealed on June 28 that the Eagles are going to wear their Kelly Green uniforms twice during the regular season. Those matchups will come in Week 9 vs. the Jacksonville Jaguars and Week 17 against the Dallas Cowboys.
The Eagles donned the infamous Kelly Green jerseys up until 1996 before they switched to the midnight green color.
The Eagles took a long break before whipping out these jerseys in 2010 for the 50th anniversary of the 1960 championship team.
They took another pause before wearing them twice last year. The Eagles went 2-0 in those threads and are looking to bring that same energy into 2024.
Both times that the Kelly Green uniforms are worn will be in front of the Philly faithful at Lincoln Financial Field, with there being either 4:25 p.m. or 8:20 p.m. kickoff.
These jerseys really resonate with the fanbase and the Eagles decided to bring them back out. And that was a great decision.
