Big news for fans of the Patriots' "color rush" jerseys: they're bringing back the dark blue-dominant uniforms for three home games in the 2019 season.

As the team announced on Wednesday, the Patriots will first don their color rush jerseys on Oct. 10 when they play the New York Giants on Thursday Night Football. They will also wear the uniforms on Oct. 27 against the Cleveland Browns and Dec. 8 against the Kansas City Chiefs. The latter may be the biggest game of the regular season in the entire National Football League.

The last time the Patriots wore the uniform was Week 9 of the 2018 season, when they beat the Green Bay Packers 31-17 at Gillette Stadium (pictured above). So this news is a huge win for fans of nautical blue.
