Several NFL teams will wear alternate and throwback uniforms during Week 17 holiday games. The Minnesota Vikings will wear an all-white "Winter Warrior" set with purple icicle-drip numbers and the franchise's first non-purple helmet; the Detroit Lions will wear all-black uniforms with a Honolulu blue helmet. The Denver Broncos will pair their alternate summit-white helmets with an all-summit-white uniform for the first time, enabled by a 2025 rule change allowing alternate helmets with primary sets. The Washington Commanders will wear a "Super Bowl Era" throwback, and multiple teams will feature holiday-inspired candy cane jersey patches.
"The Minnesota Vikings will wear their all-white "Winter Warrior" look against the Detroit Lions on Christmas Day. Minnesota debuted the threads, which include purple jersey numbers with an "icicle drip," last season. The all-white helmet features a glossy horn outlined in purple and is the first non-purple helmet in franchise history. Detroit will counter with its all-black threads and a Honolulu blue helmet, solidifying a unique NFL uniform matchup."
"Meanwhile, the Denver Broncos are pairing their alternate summit white helmets with an all-summit-white look for the first time versus the Kansas City Chiefs. Denver unveiled the helmets during the 2024 offseason but wore them with a navy jersey. Due to a 2025 offseason rule change that allowed teams to wear an alternate helmet with a primary uniform set, the Broncos are able to bring out this look."
