The tape is just there for identification purposes during camp. Teams at all levels of football do that. Interesting tidbit of trivia about this: according to NFL Films, apparently, none other than the expansion soon-to-be-0-26 Tampa Bay Buccaneers started that trend during their first minicamp, since no one really knew who anyone was at the time. Funny (yet still practical) that it's become a full-blown thing now. 1 Quote *Disclaimer: I am not an authoritative expert on stuff...I just do a lot of reading and research and keep in close connect with a bunch of people who are authoritative experts on stuff. || dribbble || Behance || Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tape is just there for identification purposes during camp. Teams at all levels of football do that. The commanders just got a little fancy and did it with team colored tape. Nothing more than that. The Dallas Cowboys are actually the only NFL team with dymo tape of the players name on the back of their helmet. It's been there for decades. This feature is also present in Madden, which is pretty surprising to me that they would get such a small detail that nobody would usually notice. However due to "limitations" with the game it says "D. COWBOYS" instead of the name and number. Now that I got that out of the way, the Commanders helmet is most likely a Training Camp thing. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well considering the uniqueness of the Commanders football unis and how they look like garbage, it might look good if it's not unique. 3 Quote Smart is believing half of what you hear.

fouhy12 Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 The home and road uniforms aren't terrible (they're not good, either), but they don't look like they belong to the Professional Football Team from Washington, DC. They look like an expansion team. 1 Quote fouhy12's NFL Concepts 2020 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bathysphere Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 Looks exactly like one of those awful mix n match college uniforms where they shoehorn in white pieces for no reason. I was kinda gunning for the Commies to go all white for the home opener at least so I could see the Jags in teal for an extra game, but if this holds we’re definitely seeing all white from their side, which makes the game a total bust. 11 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldschoolvikings Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 Doesn’t work for me. The gold numbers are asking for gold pants. Gold numbers with all white from the waist down looks severely unbalanced to me. 12 1 Quote http://dstewartpaint.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
