On New Browns Logo:
Here’s what we know about the update:
-> Brownie the Elf will NOT be involved. Sorry Brownie fans; There won’t be a comeback for everyone’s favorite orange-clad Elf.
-> Obviously, this means that the team’s helmet will no longer be the team’s primary logo. It’s about time.
-> As part of a promise to former Browns owner Randy Lerner, the new logo will NOT be on the helmet. So while the Browns will be getting a new helmet, it’ll probably still be blank on the sides. If college football has taught us anything, not having logos on the side of the helmet doesn’t necessarily mean that it’s going to be a plain old helmet. However, this is the NFL and we’re dealing with the Browns here, so other than a new shade of orange and brown, I doubt we’ll see anything crazy going on with the helmet.
-> The uniforms have been described by various team executives to be “cutting-edge,” yet at the same time linking back to the team’s history. Whether they mean “cutting-edge” when talking about design or “cutting-edge” when talking about the technology utilized in the uniform (you know, the whole “These new jerseys are 560% lighter and cooler! Wow!” deal) remains to be seen. Here’s hoping it’s the latter, because honestly, it’d be so weird seeing the Browns look like a brown-and-orange version of the Seahawks or Buccanneers.
-> There will be 3 jerseys and 2 sets of pants. I will be shocked if one of those jerseys isn’t orange.
