Just when you thought the anticipation for the 2025 season couldn't get any higher, the Atlanta Falcons dropped a bombshell of nostalgia and style. The team announced Tuesday that the iconic red throwback helmets and classic logo are officially back, and they're being reserved for the biggest stages. Get ready for a sea of red in prime time, Dirty Birds.
The Falcons were a perfect 3-0 while wearing their throwback uniforms last season.
While the Falcons will be looking sharp under the lights, the team is hard at work ensuring their play matches their style. As training camp looms, all eyes are turning to the defense, specifically the cornerback room. While the team boasts stability with both starting outside corners returning, the real drama is brewing in the slot. The position is wide open, setting the stage for a fierce internal competition. Coaches are eager to see who steps up and seizes the opportunity, as solidifying that nickel corner spot is a top priority for a secondary looking to take the next step.
The announcement of the throwback games provides a jolt of excitement, bridging the team's storied past with its bright future. But as the hype over red helmets settles, the real work begins. The upcoming battles in training camp, especially in the secondary, will determine if the 2025 Falcons have the substance to back up their throwback style. Looking good is half the battle; now it's time to win them.
