^ Not real ones. I've seen Reebok versions and some really bad-looking knockoffs. Some just say Griffin, no roman numerals.

Re: 2012 NFL Uniform Thread - Nike takes over

I noticed in one of the interviews with Robert Griffin III (might have been on ESPN over the weekend) in the background, there were a couple of his #10 jerseys hanging up with two throwback helmets - one being the yellow helmet with the "R" logo, and the other one the burgundy spear and feather helmet. Of course, we'll know on the 10th officially, what the throwbacks will be this year, but I just thought that was interesting.

They may have both just been on display for the anniversary. I saw a RGIII interview in front of the wall of Redskins history with Larry Michael too. They're using our history as backdrops for interviews at Redskins Park it seems.

We'll know in 8 days what the 80th uniform will be!

We better never wear white on white again.

That's a Reebok uniform, check out the NFL Equipment shield on the collar.

The look of the jersey is just off. Numbers are too small on the shoulders. Clearly not one of the new nike jerseys either. The helmet doesn't look real with the sun shining perfectly off of it.

Plus just check here

They were revealed live as they were picked.

Plus apparently he doesn't like to throw with his fingers on the laces.

Didn't know this but wouldn't it be easier to take a Baylor picture of him and photo shop it to the Redskins colors and helmet? Which would lead me to believe it was him with the ball just in his college days.

Thumb on the laces, creates a backspin on the ball that makes it nearly impossible for defenders to intercept it.

Just check his stats...they don't lie.

Sorry, I was being sarcastic. It's pretty obvious that it is a fake. For one, he probably hasn't even put the whole uniform on yet.
