At Super Bowl LX, both the Seattle Seahawks and New England Patriots are wearing a special ‘USA 250’ patch on their jerseys to honor a major national milestone—but what is it?
Levi’s Stadium hosted Super Bowl LX between the Seattle Seahawks and the New England Patriots. However, prior to kickoff, fans noticed a special and unusual patch on both teams’ jerseys.
The NFL partnered with the national America250 initiative to place the ‘USA 250’ patch on both uniforms. The patch commemorates 250 years since the signing of the Declaration of Independence in 1776.
Where are the ‘USA 250’ patches placed on the Super Bowl LX uniforms?
The Super Bowl LX uniforms worn by the Seattle Seahawks and the New England Patriots differ in how their patches are arranged. New England has two patches stitched onto its jersey, while Seattle features three.
The Seahawks, wearing their navy blue jerseys, have the Super Bowl LX patch on the right shoulder, with the ‘USA 250’ patch positioned just below it. On the left shoulder, Seattle wears a patch commemorating its 50th NFL season, as the NFC West franchise was founded in 1976.
The Patriots, meanwhile, are wearing white jerseys for the big game. Their ‘USA 250’ patch is located on the right shoulder, while the Super Bowl LX logo appears on the left shoulder.
