“Purple Rising” is expected to debut against the Bengals

As part of the club's theme of “Purple Rising,” the Ravens will debut a new matte purple helmet decorated with a gold facemask and “Talon stripes” along the centerline, as well as an alternate logo featuring a forward-facing raven. It's only the third helmet the franchise has worn in its 29-year history, and the first that isn't primarily black.

“I think it’s a good thing for the fans,” All-Pro safety Kyle Hamilton said.

“Hopefully we can get a win so we can wear them again.”

Baltimore is just the latest team to take advantage of the NFL's relaxed rules for additional backup helmets, a policy that the Denver Broncos, Green Bay Packers, Houston Texans and New York Jets, among others, have reused for the 2024 season.

“I can’t wait to put them on,” cornerback Arthur Maulet said on the team’s website.

“I’m a purple guy. I'm from New Orleans. So one of my favorite colors. Purple represents royalty and loyalty. That's the royal color right there. I can't wait to put on the purple and gold. Man.”
