The Atlanta Falcons finally unveiled their new uniform design on Thursday morning and the reaction wasn't overwhelmingly positive or negative. The team changed its main jersey color from black to red, added new numbers and slightly altered the helmets.
"The numbers stood out to me a lot," said Falcons wide receiver Drake London. "I am glad they went back to a more traditional, old-school type of number, but at the same time still has a little bit of Atlanta Falcon flair to it."
Some fans liked the return of the team's full-time red home jerseys, while others lamented the fact that the red throwback helmets were not incorporated into the main design.
The Falcons made sure to clarify that their throwback uniforms and helmets are still in the rotation, and they can wear them up to four times per season.
Overall, the response was fairly mixed, which is better than the team's last uniform release. Take a look at the Falcons' new uniform set below, and check out how fans reacted to the team's revamped look on social media.

Falcons new jersey thoughts:
Pro: I think I'll be able to tell the 1s from the 7s now.
Pro: Red jerseys.
Pro: Sleeve logo.
Con: What's wrong with red jerseys AND red helmets?
Con: I'd have taken some silver pants.

The @AtlantaFalcons new uni’s are out. I speak for myself.
I do not understand the aversion in Flowery Branch to the real red helmets. I do not understand the love for the black helmets. They are, just OK. So I am disappointed by this. And I await the day someone in FB gets it. pic.twitter.com/zeJEbTaDNH

They’re not bad, the red is awesome. But we kind of look like the Texans now https://t.co/sqWNlii0NO
