Nike’s New Pro Bowl Uniforms Look Oddly Familiar

When Nike took over the NFL’s uniforms in 2012, many expected a radical Oregon-style shift.

But the Seahawks are the only team who really saw any noticeable changes. And even then, they weren’t as wild as their NCAA neighbors in Eugene.

This time around, however, Nike busted out some familiar flair with their new Pro Bowl uniforms. AsĀ Tony Manfred of Yahoo! Business Insider points out, the new looks are strikingly similar to the Nike-made uniforms work by the Oregon Ducks and Oregon State Beavers.

Check out the comparisons below to see for yourself:
