    Titans make a switch to light blue jerseys

    The light blue jerseys, as worn here by Titans rookie defensive end Jason Jones, will be the team's primary jersey this season.

    The Titans have worn their light blue jerseys well over the years, and in 2008 they'll wear them a lot more.

    They have switched their primary jersey to light blue after wearing navy since 1999. The organization recently notified the NFL of the decision.

    The team plans to wear light blue for all of its home games except the preseason opener Aug. 9 against the St. Louis Rams, and the Nov. 23 regular-season game at LP Field against the Jets, when they'll wear navy. The team's primary road jersey will remain white.

    The Titans had discussed making the change in recent years, but owner Bud Adams just recently decided to make the switch.

    Pants can be light blue, navy blue or white.

    They are 4-0 over the past two seasons and 7-3 overall since the light blue was first introduced as the "third jersey" in 2003. The Titans are 43-28 in dark blue and 33-30 in the white jersey.

    I like this. I think their light blue is much better than their navy blue.

    Looks like the Jags jerseys with the Panthers typeface.

    Probably want to wear the alternates at home for one game, like we did with the Titans, to help sell some more of the dark ones. So they picked a game they figure to win, like homecoming.

    It's not the plain one, that's just the practice jersey. It's the same one they've been using for a while:

    The photo in the first post is just a practice jersey. The ones the Titans will wear in 7 home games this season are the same jerseys they have already worn in a handful of regular season games.
