The Tampa Bay Buccaneers released new uniforms today, and hopefully, they can finally got it right. 

For the fourth time in franchise history, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers will be getting new uniforms.

The team is set to reveal its new look on Tuesday, one that fans have been dying to see since the introduction of the infamous “alarm clock” jerseys the team has been wearing since 2014 — widely regarded as the worst in the NFL.

It’s a time of exciting and significant change for the Bucs. The new uniforms come on the heels of the team signing Tom Brady, which has fans hoping a Super Bowl can return to Tampa Bay less than two decades after the first championship was won (ironically with uniforms that look a lot like what we’re expecting to see unveiled today).

UPDATE: They’re HERE!

Whenever teams have announced they will be changing up their uniforms, a leak of some sort seems to follow shortly thereafter. It happened to the Cleveland Browns a few years ago, and just last month the Rams new logo leaked days before the team officially unveiled it.

But the Buccaneers have been able to keep everything under wraps for the entirety of the wait. Then again, fans have been releasing dream mockups of new uniforms ever since the infamous alarm clock jerseys were unveiled back in 2014, so it’s not as though there’s been a shortage of potential leaks floating around on the internet.

The closest we’ve come to an actual leak is UniWatch releasing mockups of what they were shown back at the beginning of March. These would be a return to the Super Bowl-era look for the Bucs, one that didn’t really need to change and would be a reminder of better times when the likes of Warren Sapp, Derrick Brooks, and a Super Bowl championship were synonymous with the look.

We won’t know what the Buccaneers new uniforms look like until the team officially unveils them today — or someone reputable passes along a leak at the 11th hour.

When will new Buccaneers uniforms be released?

The scheduled drop is set for 1 pm ET, which means fans will either be dancing the rest of the afternoon away or barfing up their lunches. Hopefully, given how things went the last time Tampa Bay changed things up, fans won’t be let down by ownership.

As far as when to buy them, the uniforms will be available for pre-order on the Buccaneers official site as well as NFL Shop, Fanatics, and all the other places you go to get your NFL gear.

Are the Buccaneers be getting a new logo too?

As of right now, the answer seems to be no. Unlike the Los Angeles Rams, the Buccaneers have been exclusively teasing new uniforms and have been careful not to include mention of their logo.

Of all the things wrong about the current Buccaneers uniforms, the logo is actually the one thing that works. It’s a redesign of the classic 90s/00s logo that was the only thing about the jersey kit that felt right. Keeping that and blending it with a remix of those late 90s and early 2000s uniforms makes a ton of sense.
