Bucs Players React to New Uniforms

See how Tampa Bay players feel about their new threads.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers unveiled new uniforms Tuesday afternoon, throwing things back to their glory days with a redesign that looks somewhat identical to the look the team wore from 1997 to 2013.

The biggest change? A new, all-pewter alternate combo.

Bucs players wasted no time posting their reactions to the new uniforms on social media:

"I’m excited," says wide receiver Bryant Mitchell, who just re-signed with the Bucs on a one-year deal this offseason. "I think it gives us those 2003 Super Bowl feels! I like that we went back to the classics. It’s time for a change around here, and this is the beginning. First TB12 (signing Tom Brady), now this. Then, we have goals as a team to win and change the culture around here. The pewter alternate is super nice. I liked that all red, but I really like these. I like the way it looks. I’m a big fan of the white, though. That’s my favorite."

These new uniforms are already a huge hit with both players and fans. Hopefully for both parties, they lead to more on-field success than the Bucs have had since the last time they wore something similar.
