Eagles Finally Announce When Kelly Green Jerseys Will Go On Sale

Eagles fans have wanted Kelly Green Jerseys badly. And that has been the case for a while. Every year, we have begged the team to wear them as their alternate. But until last year, NFL teams were not allowed to have an alternate helmet. Meaning the only way they could have worn the Kelly green, is if they did it with their standard Midnight Green helmets. Since that would not look good, they never made Kelly Green alternates.
But last year that all changed. The NFL changed the rule to allow teams to have one alternate helmet. It was not in time for the Eagles to use Kelly Green last season, but they announced this would be the year that the Kelly Green alternates made their debut.
But the Eagles were not done with making us wait. All off-season they have teased us. Literally at times. Their social media team reveled in torturing fans with hints, but never actually announcing when the Jerseys would be available. While all the other teams were showing off their throwback alternates, it was radio silence from the Eagles. But it seemed they have had enough fun at our expense. The Eagles finally announced when Kelly Green Jerseys would be available to purchase.
Yes this Monday, they will finally go on sale. Though judging by the reaction, it may be tough getting through the crowds to get one before they sell out. According to
The #Eagles have announced the Kelly Green alternate jerseys will be on sale in all the Team Pro Shop stores on Monday 7/31 at 9 a.m.
- Lincoln Financial Field
- Cherry Hill
- Lancaster
Gates will open to fans at 8 a.m. Monday at LFF.

When the Eagles will first don their jerseys is not yet known. But you will get your chance to get them Monday.

8 Biggest Takeaways From the First Few Days At Eagles Training Camp
We are now a few days into Eagles Training Camp. It opened up on Tuesday, and they had their first practice on Wednesday. And you can already see storylines starting to develop. Whether it came from what we saw on the practice field, or from what the coaches or players said in press conferences after the fact. It is the first step on their journey to try and get back to the Super Bowl. With hopefully a much better finish this time around.
The offense mostly looks the same. Jalen Hurts, AJ Brown, Devonta Smith, Dallas Goedert, and most of the line are all back. Miles Sanders and Isaac Seumalo are the only starters who left. But the defense is very different. Two new starters at both Safety and Linebacker. Javon Hargrave left, but there are some new faces along the line too in Jalen Carter and Nolan Smith. And there are new faces on the sideline with Sean Desai taking over for Jonathan Gannon, and Brian Johnson for Shane Steichen.
Can this roster live up to the lofty standards last season’s team set? Will rookies like Carter and Smith live up to the hype? Who has the early edge in some of the key camp battles?
Obviously, everything that happens at training camp needs to be taken with a grain of salt. We have all seen players look like stars in camp, only to never replicate that in a real game. But that doesn’t mean there is nothing to learn. And the first few days of camp certainly had some interesting takeaways. Whether that be early standouts, Nick Sirianni’s message to his team, or what players are getting the first team reps early in camp.
Here are 8 things we can take away from the first few days of Eagles Training Camp:
