In an exciting announcement for fans of the Jacksonville Jaguars, the team has unveiled its highly anticipated “Prowler Throwbacks” uniforms, marking a nostalgic return to their original 1995 expansion attire. This special uniform will make its debut during Week 5 of the upcoming NFL season, specifically on October 6, 2024, when the Jaguars face off against the Indianapolis Colts at EverBank Stadium in Jacksonville.
This unveiling coincides with the induction of former Head Coach Tom Coughlin into the Pride of the Jaguars, an honor that adds to the significance of the event. Jaguars President Mark Lamping expressed the enthusiasm surrounding the throwback uniforms, stating, “Everywhere I go and from every comment I read, it’s apparent our fans are longing to see Jaguars’ players in throwback uniforms. That persistence paid off and our uniforms reminiscent of the team’s early years are back by popular demand – just in time for the 30th season and, in particular, the Pride of the Jaguars induction of our inaugural head coach, Tom Coughlin.”
The reveal of the Prowler Throwbacks was executed in a vibrant 1990s-themed video shared on social media, featuring notable players such as safety Andre Cisco, cornerback Tyson Campbell, and Jaguars legend Leon Searcy. The video’s nostalgic soundtrack includes the iconic “Uh-Oh” song performed by the 1999 Jaguars team, which is celebrated for achieving a franchise-record 14 regular season victories.
The name “Prowler Throwbacks” is derived from the distinctive running Jaguar logo that is embroidered on the sleeves of the jerseys. These uniforms also showcase a vintage three-color numbering system, adding to their classic appeal. Complementing the jerseys, the pants feature a striking teal stripe adorned with gold and black piping that runs the length of each leg.
In a nod to the team’s history, the helmets will display the original Jaguars logo that the franchise used from its inception in 1995 until 2013, further enhancing the throwback experience for fans. Additionally, attendees at EverBank Stadium can expect to see various throwback elements throughout the venue on game day, creating an immersive experience that celebrates the Jaguars’ rich history.
This announcement not only highlights the team’s commitment to honoring its past but also serves to strengthen the bond between the franchise and its dedicated fanbase. As the Jaguars prepare for their 30th season, the excitement surrounding the Prowler Throwbacks is palpable, promising a thrilling game day atmosphere that fans will not want to miss.
With the launch of the Prowler Throwbacks, the Jacksonville Jaguars are set to create lasting memories for both longtime supporters and new fans alike, as they celebrate their storied history while looking forward to the future.
