Baltimore Ravens, an American professional football team based in Baltimore, Maryland, unveiled a new alternate helmet called 'Purple Rising' on June 18, 2024. The design features a metallic purple paint finish with gold stripes and a gold face mask. The team will wear this helmet for one game during the upcoming NFL season.
The idea for the new helmet has been in discussion for several years, according to Baltimore senior vice president of marketing Brad Downs, who spoke about the process on 'The Lounge' podcast. Downs mentioned that they paid close attention to fan feedback and waited a long time for this day. The Ravens have traditionally worn a black helmet with their logo since the late 1990s, but they decided not to introduce a new alternate uniform along with the helmet.
Players Mark Andrews, Zay Flowers, Odafe Oweh, Nate Wiggins, and Tylan Wallace expressed excitement about the new look. The team's official Twitter account shared images of players reacting to the helmet design and modeling it with their all-purple uniform.
The Ravens join other NFL teams like the Minnesota Vikings, New York Giants, Denver Broncos, and Detroit Lions in unveiling new helmets this offseason. The league revised its uniform policy in April 2024 to allow teams to have a third helmet design for the 2025 season.
