It appears as if the Philadelphia Eagles have fired up their uniform randomizer yet again and will debut a look never seen before on Sunday Night Football against the New York Giants.

While the Eagles have routinely worn their famed black jersey (a personal favorite) they’ve never worn black pants with the said top. That will change on Sunday according to Connor Barwin who let the cat out of the bag a bit early.

"Philadelphia Eagles linebacker Connor Barwin let the cat out of the bag Monday during an interview with local radio station 94WIP. “We will be wearing all black, for the first time ever I think,” Barwin said. “We’ve always wore black jerseys with white pants, but we will be in all black which is going to be very cool for Sunday night.”"

Now you may have noticed that the Philadelphia Eagles have been wearing their white jersey far more often than you’re used to seeing and you’d be correct. Earlier in the year the Eagles announced that Nike, the league supplier, couldn’t properly match the green jersey color and it would cause a delay in the creation of the jersey.

That of course has little to do with the ‘black out’ the Philadelphia Eagles are going for on Sunday night, though does have to do with why they’ve worn a different color jersey so often.

You can of course play with such a uniform in Madden if you set such up correctly though this will be the first time the Philadelphia Eagles will actually wear the uniform in a real-life game. Can’t wait to see it as the all-black and green accents should be a pretty sweet look.
