Steelers to wear their Color Rush uniforms vs. the Giants in Week 8

The Pittsburgh Steelers are preparing for the New York Giants in Week 8 on Monday Night Football, and there is some added “juice” to the game after it was announced they’ll be wearing special uniforms for the second week in a row. Last week, a 37-15 win over the New York Jets on Sunday Night Football, the team wore 1974 throwbacks to honor the 50th anniversary of the Super Bowl IX champions.

This week the team will be wearing the fan-favorite Color Rush uniforms vs. the Giants at Acrisure Stadium.

What is the Steelers record in these uniforms? They aren’t undefeated like their throwback uniforms, but it is a stellar record. This from the Steelers official website:

The Steelers own a 7-3 record when wearing the Color Rush uniforms.

The Steelers first wore the uniforms on Christmas Day in 2016 when they defeated the Baltimore Ravens, 31-27, to win the AFC North. The team also wore them in 2017 against the Tennessee Titans, a 40-17 win.

In 2018 the team wore them twice, the first time on Thursday Night Football when they defeated the Carolina Panthers, 52-21. They wore them a second time against the New England Patriots, a 17-10 win.

The team also wore them twice in 2019, including in a win over the Miami Dolphins, 27-14, on Monday Night Football. In 2020 the Steelers defeated the Ravens, 19-14, in a Color Rush game. They defeated the Chicago Bears wearing them in 2021.
