Straus in SI pointing out how this is a trend within the league

I don't buy it being a league mandated move. The new ownership also own the Browns. That team did a uniform revamp in 2015 that was universally panned. 6 years later, they are pretty much back to where they started. This looks like something akin to that. The ownership guy (son of...you know the type) who did that rebrand is apparently behind this one.
BUT, I do see the trend Straus is talking about. A lot of teams are going with black because...reasons. The biggest crime is Inter Miaimi who have pink & refuse to do anything with it but simple piping.
