The New Orleans Saints announced they will be wearing their black home jerseys and matching black pants for Week 13’s game with the Detroit Lions. It’s been their most-popular uniform combinations over the years, being worn in 89 games dating back to 2006. The Saints have a 52-37 record in this kit during that span. They’ll be hoping to add another win on Sunday in front of a home crowd that might need some convincing these Saints are worth rooting for.
Here’s how the Saints’ winning percentage in this combination stacks up to the other uniforms in their wardrobe, if you’re curious (not including the controversial gold jerseys used in a loss back in 2003):
