What are the Christmas patches on NFL team uniforms on Thursday?

[ASFN Admin]

You've probably seen some of the special patches worn by NFL teams on previous holidays. And on Christmas 2025, with three games and six teams playing Thursday, we've got some holiday-themed patches you might notice on uniforms.

If you're squinting at your TV at any of the six teams play, yes, you're seeing candy canes on uniforms. The patch worn by the teams participating on Thursday was on there for Week 16 presumably to promote the Christmas games, and it's back for Week 17. It's two candy canes with the NFL shield and a "2025" below.

Check this out -- pretty spiffy!
