As the Tampa Bay Buccaneers enter the thick of the most busy portion of the NFL offseason, they are also preparing to celebrate the organization's 50th anniversary this coming season.
The Bucs are likely going to have many different festivities throughout the season in order to celebrate this milestone, but fans have to be wondering whether or not the team is going to include some possible throwback uniforms on occasion as well.
In what might have been an accidental leak, an iconic uniform might be on its way back for the 2025 season. No, it's not the "orange creamsicle." But, it's close.
In an Instagram post, somebody clipped and posted a graphic which showed the Buccaneers' white 1976 throwback uniforms. The original post looked to be in celebration of the Buccaneers' 50th anniversary, which of course would make sense as to why they're bringing back the team's original uniform.
Nothing has been confirmed by the team, but credit to Uni Watch for uncovering this gem of a possible leak.
The 2025 Buccaneers would do justice to an iconic throwback
The season in which the Buccaneers unveiled these uniforms saw the team go 0-14, so the creamsicle and white doesn't exactly always bring back fond memories. But, the history is there and fans will certainly appreciate the nostalgia to an extent.
This current team is, of course, set up to do a whole lot better than a zero-win season in 2025.
Tampa Bay is looking at trying to re-sign fan favorite and career-long Buc, Chris Godwin, to keep him around allow the offense to continue flourishing with he, Baker Mayfeild and Mike Evans.
There are a good amount of pieces in place, offensively, but can the Bucs add enough to fill their key holes during the upcoming free agency period and 2025 NFL Draft? The core to win is right there, and seeing them do so in a uniform synonymous with losing would be a thing of beauty for the fan base.
Those white jerseys were only worn for one season, believe it or not, before the team scrapped them altogether. They did not last long. But, to bring them back in the team's 50th season with a team that's ready to continue winning and competing?
That only seems right.
