4. Washington @ Minnesota Vikings

The Minnesota Vikings have been featured in the Top 5 several times this season, as their uniforms are the best work Nike has done in the NFL so far. I am not the biggest fan of the number font, but Nike has created a unique font for each team they have done a re-design for.

Washington’s uniforms are a classic, but the inconsistency of the stripes throughout the uniforms is annoying. The helmet, sleeves, pants, and socks all have different striping patterns. These days it wouldn’t be difficult to tweak them and make them match. It’s a simple fix that would bring some consistency to Washington’s uniforms.
