Arizona Cardinals
In January 2005, the team unveiled its first major changes in a century. The red cardinal head logo was updated to look sleeker and meaner than the previous cardinal head. The beak was changed from gold to yellow, heavier black outlines were added and this bird is significantly more aggressive looking than the previous bird. Numerous fans had called the previous version a "parakeet."
Atlanta Falcons
The Atlanta Falcons team identity launched a new era for the team in 2003. The logo was redesigned with red and silver accents to depict a more powerful, aggressive falcon, which now more closely resembles the capital letter "F." The new Falcon logo looks similar, but the Falcon has a swifter, “in flight” look.
Baltimore Ravens
The current version of the Baltimore Ravens logo was unveiled in 1998 and consisted of a purple with black and yellow border raven’s head and the letter “B” which is superimposed on its left side of the raven's head.
Buffalo Bills
The standing bison logo was replaced by a blue charging buffalo with a red slanting stripe streaming from its horn. The newer emblem, which is still the primary one used by the franchise, was designed by aerospace designer Stevens Wright in 1974.
Carolina Panthers
The head of the panther in Carolina Panthers logo is black and silver in color, sketched in blue. The emblem depicts that the Panthers are expert hunters and attack their rivals at the final stage. The team changes were designed to give their logo an "aggressive, contemporary look" as well to give it a more three-dimensional feel.
Chicago Bears
A front-facing orange with a navy outline bear's head with mouth wide open giving a mighty roar. Former alternate logo.
Cincinnati Bengals
The Bengals primary logo consists of a large letter "B" in orange with three black tiger stripes incorporated into the design making its way down from the top of the letter "B." Originally introduced in 2004, the Bengals darkened the shade of orange used in their logos (to match the orange they'd already been using on their on-field jerseys since 2012) when they re-designed their uniforms in 2021.
Cleveland Browns
The updated helmet logo is reflective of today's modern Cleveland, the design honors the past while evolving into the future. The iconic brown and white stripes stand tall over the orange helmet, a new orange color that matches the passion of the Dawg Pound. The new brown face mask represents the strength and toughness of Cleveland.
Dallas Cowboys
Jack Eskridge, one of coach Tom Landry’s first hires, redesigned the solid blue logo in 1964 by adding a white border around the blue star, giving it a 3D effect. It has remained unchanged ever since. The updated logo has a dark navy blue star with white and navy blue outlines. A darker shade of blue.
Denver Broncos
A profile of a white and navy blue highlighted horse’s head with a navy blue outline and an orange mane. The shade of orange was darkened and the navy blue was adjusted slightly as well. Designed by Nike
Detroit Lions
The new logo features only subtle changes, replacing the black outline around the lion with a silver one and sharpening the image. A fierce leaping blue lion still has the white then silver outline. A flowing mane and fangs as facial features are added.
Green Bay Packers
The redesigned logo consists of white football shaped "G" on a green oval with a yellow border.
Houston Texans
A bull's head is red, white, and blue with a white star in place of the eye. Darkened the shade of blue and brightened the shade of red.
Indianapolis Colts
A blue horseshoe presented in a U shape with seven nail holes The Colts have adjusted the shade of blue used in this logo several times. Added white trim to the horseshoe.
Jacksonville Jaguars
The Jags new logo is the result of several months of collaboration with the NFL, incorporating specific insight from Jaguars fans in 2012 and in recent years. The new Jaguar head logo was intended to be "fiercer" and more realistic. The new primary logo stays true to the team’s traditional colors, while featuring a “fiercer” Jaguar, “amplifying the powerful characteristics of the cat.”
Kansas City Chiefs
The interlocked initials "KC" are in red with a black drop shadow on a white arrowhead trimmed in black. Slightly changed the letter C. The Chiefs logo is an arrowhead design originally sketched by Lamar Hunt on a napkin on a flight from Dallas to Kansas City. Hunt's sketches on a napkin began with an interlocking “KC” inside a circle or an oval. Hunt inspired the interlocking "KC" design with the "SF" inside of an oval on the San Francisco 49ers helmets. Unlike the 49ers' logo, Kansas City’s overlapping initials appear inside a white arrowhead instead of an oval, surrounded by a thick, chipped-looking black border.
Las Vegas Raiders
In 2020, Las Vegas Raiders have added a black outline to their shield that consists of the wordmark "RAIDERS" at the top, two crossed cutlasses with handles up and cutting edge down, and superimposed head of a Raider wearing a football helmet and a black eye patch covering his right eye.
Los Angeles Chargers
A yellow and light blue arched lightning bolt, navy blue eliminated from previous logo and the angle of the arch bolt has been reduced.
Los Angeles Rams
Initials "LA" in italics with the letter "A" arched back to form a ram's horn, all in blue.
Miami Dolphins
An aqua and marine-blue dolphin swimming in front of a coral sunburst. A new shade of coral orange.
Minnesota Vikings
Again in 2013, the Vikings changed their primary logo to show the profile of a Viking with long gold, braided hair, a large mustache, and bushy eyebrows wearing a gold and purple helmet with two white horns, one on either side of the helmet. The Vikings have used this logo in varying color schemes since their inaugural season. This version here was first used in 2013 and came with several modifications most notably to the horns as well as the overall shape of the logo, especially in the lower left by the hair.
New England Patriots
The New England Patriots unveiled a new logo in 2000 which depicts a silver patriot with a red and navy blue striped hat. The 2000 logo is a mirror image of the one designed in 1993, though a few changes have been made, the deepening of the blue shade.
New Orleans Saints
Old gold fleur-de-lis with multiple black and white outlines. Shade of old gold altered slightly for the 2017 season.
New York Giants
In the 2000 season, an updated stylized blue and red trim lowercase "ny" returned as the primary logo. Controversy surrounded the change because the team remained in New Jersey.
New York Jets
A wordmark "JETS" in gotham green italicized lettering with a green silhouette of a jet across the top. A new style of font, the shade of green, changes to the letter "E" and the shape of the jet.
Philadelphia Eagles
The team's logo changed in 1996, with the eagle limited to a white bald head, drawn in a more cartoon based style. The eagle has determined and aggressive attack look with mouth open. The logo has a silver border to give it a 3-D look. The current logo has a hidden "E" on the neck of the eagle.
Pittsburgh Steelers
The Steelers logo consists of three colored (red, yellow and blue) four-pointed astroids stars hypocycloids of four cusps, with the team name Steelers to the left, with a silver ring and a black trim bounding them all.
San Francisco 49ers
In 2009 San Francisco logo consisted of a stretched oval "SF" logo design that went though a new brighter shade of red.
Seattle Seahawks
The new logo replaces the Seahawk blue with wolf grey. The Seattle Seahawks logo is comprised of the face of a sea hawk with the eyes, beak and the neck artistically illustrating the team’s quest for glory, pride and success. The fierce glare in the eyes of the Seattle Seahawks logo is basically derived from the Egyptian mythology where a falcon enjoyed a superior place in the hieroglyphs.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers
A red pirate's flag waving from a silver sword with a white and black skull, two crossed swords, and a football on the flag. The shade of red was darkened for the 2020 season.
Tennessee Titans
A letter "T" in white with a sharp edge, suggesting a sword-like object, which is placed upon a circular light blue shield trimmed in both white and red.
