Dallas City News

We have reached the final week of the year that does not contain NFL football, thankfully the first week of the college football season will help the time pass by quickly.

This is such a magical time of year as hope reigns supreme across every team in the land. Opportunities appear limitless, even following a frustrating offseason, and soon enough everything we thought or predicted will come true or be totally wrong.

The Dallas Cowboys will begin their 2024 season on the road against the Cleveland Browns which will give us a great look at the offense given how stingy Cleveland was on defense last year. While the football is obviously what matters most, there are other important things, like which uniforms the team is going to wear.

Every year people wonder which uniforms the Cowboys will be wearing here, there, on this day, on that day… you get the picture.

Thankfully the mothership released this season’s official uniform schedule on Saturday morning.

Primary White: at Browns, Saints, Ravens, at Steelers, at 49ers, at Falcons, Eagles, Texans, at Commanders, Buccaneers, at Eagles

The Cowboys are the only team in the NFL who choose to wear their white jersey as their primary one and as a result they wind up wearing it quite often.

All told there are 11 games in which we will see this uniform combination for Dallas, including the first three of the year. It is as much of who the team is as any other visual aspect these days, all the way down to the pants that people still wonder why are seafoam.

Five of the home games that Dallas plays this season will be in this uniform combination so the AT&T Stadium crowd will see it far more than anything else.

The released schedule does not include when (assuming it happens) the Cowboys will apply the red bicentennial stripe to their helmets as we have seen them do over the last few years. But it is generally something that happens in this uniform combination so expect it to be one of these games. My own personal guess would be maybe the Texans game on Monday Night Football.

All-White Arctic: at Giants, Bengals

This is a newer uniform for the Cowboys as they took the actual uniform that came from the color rush release in 2015 (which is very similar to the double star jersey from 1994 that people love so much) and paired it with the shell of their throwback helmets that they traditionally wear on Thanksgiving Day.

The NFL allows for two different helmet shells to be used, but you can get creative with the decals that you place on them. Dallas creates a new look by using the normal star on the white shell and pairs it with the all-white color rush uniform for the “arctic” look that we saw them wear last season against the Chargers.

This time around they will wear it twice, on the road against the Giants and at home against the Bengals. Both of those are primetime games.

Navy Blue: Lions, at Panthers, Commanders

For a while the Cowboys only wore navy maybe once a year, but they have since embraced it as an alternative look that they enjoy. A few years ago they really leaned into things and started purposefully wearing it at home.

Two of the three games that Dallas will wear navy this year are in fact at home with the lone road contest in the get-ups coming in Carolina.

This uniform is the truest definition of the blue and silver as the jersey is navy and the pants are silver so the name is proper and true in ways that it isn’t in any other combination.

Cheers to the navy.

Throwback: Giants on Thanksgiving Day

Among the many traditions that Thanksgiving Day brings is in fact the throwback uniforms for America’s Team. It doesn’t get much better than this.

We saw the Cowboys wear these specific uniforms against the Giants just two years ago when the teams met on Turkey Day. We are getting a full and total rematch it seems as the division rivals will face off on the day again with the Cowboys wearing a uniform that many people love.

This is the only time that we see the Cowboys wear their throwback uniforms which makes them feel special and again ties them to the day/holiday in a grander sense.

They rock.
