Fantastic news all around on this fine Tuesday, as the Seattle Seahawks and Denver Broncos will surely make everyone's day with their uniform announcement. Both the Seahawks and Broncos are set to square off against one another to kick off Week 6 on Thursday Night Football this year. It is a clash between former AFC West rivals, so what better way to celebrate than for both to don their old threads.
That's right folks, Throwback Thursday is BACK in a big way, as the Seahawks and Broncos will each be rocking their classic uniforms.

Seattle announced three alternate uniform games for 2026 earlier this summer. They'll wear the throwbacks twice under the lights of prime time (Sunday Night Football vs the Chiefs, and Monday Night Football vs the Cowboys) and one game with their Nike Rivalries (Christmas Day vs the Rams). the NFL allows teams up to four games to wear alternate uniforms, and I was wondering what the Seahawks were planning to do with their final option.
Now we know, and I couldn't be more pleased. Especially since the Broncos will be participating as well.
Sadly, this does appear to mean the Seahawks will be sidelining their Action Green alternates for one more season. I know they are controversial among the 12th Man, but I personally love them. Alas, we wait for 2027 at the earliest to see if they return!
Seattle will aim to change their luck with these double-throwback games. The Seahawks have played in two of these games, both of which were losses. Week 6 to the San Francisco 49ers, falling 36-24, and Week 5 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers last year in a narrow 38-35 shootout defeat.
