The Tennessee Titans are shaking things up in their 20th season as a franchise.
The Titans already have made several personnel changes, bringing in a new coaching staff led by head coach Mike Vrabel and signing several new players, including a pair of former New England Patriots in running back Dion Lewis and cornerback Malcolm Butler.
With those changes comes a cosmetic face-lift, too: The team unveiled a full set of new uniforms and helmets Wednesday night during a launch party in Nashville.

It’s not a complete overhaul of Tennessee’s old look, but there still are plenty of unique features — with a story behind each one.

Red accents the uniform, including the red stars on the neckline, inspired by the three stars from the Tennessee state flag.
Jersey numbers are shaped in a way that exemplifies Tennessee's Northeast corner and gets inspiration from Greek lettering.

We’re on board with these — especially those light blue alternates.
The Patriots play the Titans in Tennessee in 2018, so Pats fans will get the chance to see Lewis, Butler and fellow ex-Patriot Logan Ryan rocking the new threads this fall.
