The NFL now allows franchises to don alternate helmets on a few occasions. And after the Patriots and the Saints, it’s the Texans’ turn to unveil their alternative version, called “Battle Red”.
On Tuesday, the team announced that it will wear red helmets during the Thursday night game against the Eagles in week 9. An opportunity to admire the novelty for the whole country, since it is the only scheduled opposition in prime time in the United States for Houston at present. Fans will still have a taste during the summer preparation and will be able to admire the novelty during the first training session open to the public.
“We are thrilled to introduce our new ‘Battle Red Helmet’ as we continue to evolve as an organization,” Texans President Greg Grissom said in a statement. “We’ve always shown that we’re not afraid to try new things, so we jumped at the chance to design an alternate helmet that will complement our uniforms, especially the Battle Red jersey. The start of training camp is on the horizon and we are excited that our fans will have the opportunity to experience the new helmet in person soon. »
