The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will wear their throwback “Creamsicle” uniforms in a Week 6 game against the visiting Detroit Lions, the team announced Wednesday.
It will be the first time in more than a decade that the Buccaneers have worn the light-orange jerseys and helmets featuring the “Bucco Bruce” logo.
The Bucs donned the uniforms starting with their inaugural season in 1976 through 1996, then brought them back once per season from 2009-12.
“Our fans have waited a decade to see our players back in these classic Creamsicle jerseys, and we are excited to celebrate our rich legacy when we debut these one-of-a-kind uniforms on Oct. 15th against the Detroit Lions,” said Buccaneers chief operating officer Brian Ford. “As we begin this new era of Buccaneers football, we aim to honor those who have played a vital role in our Club’s journey while also appealing to a new generation of fans who will drive our future success.”
