In an age where keeping new uniform designs under wraps is increasingly challenging post-announcement, the Texans find themselves grappling with a similar situation this week.
On social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, a leaked image depicts a board showcasing three potential concepts for the new jersey, notably featuring one described as "full primary color." Additionally, a glimpse of a mannequin adorned in a Houston Texans jersey can be observed.
The fan community swiftly reacted to the leak, expressing their disappointment across various comments and quotes.
Texans' Senior Vice President of Marketing and Communications, Doug Vosik, played a pivotal role in the development of Houston's new jerseys. As per Brian Barefield of USA Today, Vosik expressed the franchise's enthusiasm towards the upcoming uniform refresh.
Not long ago, Houston's NFL franchise was subject to ridicule within the league, enduring a tumultuous three-year period marked by frequent coaching changes. However, the tide turned with the appointment of DeMeco Ryans and the selection of C.J. Stroud as Offensive Rookie of the Year with the No. 2 draft pick in April.
Remarkably, the Texans transformed from league bottom-dwellers to postseason contenders, clinching a playoff victory within just a year. Consequently, players from other teams are now eager to join a franchise that has shed its former reputation as a laughingstock.
