Falcons can't wear 'Color Rush' uniforms vs. Buccaneers

Atlanta Falcons

For the fourth time in seven "Thursday Night Football" games this season, one of the two teams won't be able to wear its "Color Rush" uniforms.

The Atlanta Falcons will be in all white, rather than the red Color Rush uniforms they unveiled earlier this season, because the home Tampa Bay Buccaneers will wear all-red uniforms. For obvious reasons, both teams can't wear red.

In Week 2, the New York Jets were forced to wear white instead of their green Color Rush uniforms vs. the Buffalo Bills because of concerns voiced by colorblind fans who couldn't tell the Jets' green from the Bills' red last season.

In Week 3, the Houston Texans wore white because both they and the New England Patriots have navy blue Color Rush uniforms.

In Week 5, the Arizona Cardinals wore white because both they and the San Francisco 49ers have black Color Rush uniforms.

There are no Color Rush conflicts for any remaining "Thursday Night Football" games this season.
