New Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Kirk Cousins made a major proclamation about which franchise had the best jerseys in the game.
Cousins, who has played on a few teams with crafty leads, said on the team’s website that Las Vegas has the best in all sports.

“I think the best jerseys in professional sports,” Cousins said. “I remember being in warmups one time against the Raiders and our head coach looked at me and said, ‘These must be the best jerseys there are in professional sports.’ And I said, ‘You know what Coach, I have to agree.’ These are really sharp.'”
Cousins probably wouldn’t want to ruffle the feathers of the franchise he just signed a long-term deal with. The two sides agreed to a five-year deal, worth an estimated $172 million. He will likely be seen as a mentor if the team decides to select Francisco Mendoza with the No. 1 pick in the 2026 NFL Draft later this month.

The veteran quarterback may think the Raiders jerseys look “really snazzy,” but the Atlanta Falcons uniforms weren’t that bad either when he played with them.
GQ magazine compiled a list of the 31 best uniforms since 2000. Raiders jerseys were not on the list.
The outlet, in terms of NFL teams, gave nods to the Philadelphia Eagles’ black alternate jerseys, the Baltimore Ravens’ black alternate jerseys and the Los Angeles Chargers’ powder blue home jerseys.

The silver and black of the Raiders may be iconic for many reasons, but clearly there is room for debate as to which team has it better.
