See the full story · 2 sourcesThe Buffalo Bills have officially unveiled the team's newest look after weeks of speculation and potential leaks.
The team previously already confirmed the new look en route before next season . In addition, a teaser showed how the uniforms could look a few days ago which was a video of a silver nickel posted to social media .
Between the leaks which proved to be accurate and the teasers provided by the Bills, pre-release reactions were not good. They did not get better on Monday when the team make the new look public.
Most of that initial reaction was of a local variety. With the official on Monday, national attention turned to the "Nickel City" threads and those reviews were just as poor.
With that, here is a national media roundup of reactions to the Bills' new uniforms:

How would you describe Buffalo’s new Nickel City alternate uniforms? The Bills have really put my age-old philosophies to the test: 1. We need to wait to see how they look on the field before we make a final judgement 2. Teams should try new things, it’s the only way sports… https://t.co/oS2zuWV7nb pic.twitter.com/Lh99kvE8Ty

People often overreact to these new jersey drops. They're not overreacting to this one. The Bills have unveiled the most hideous uniforms I've ever seen. If Pepsi had a football team, this is what the uniforms would look like. https://t.co/Gb1D55tcuH

The Bills have released a new alternate "Nickel City" uniform, inspired by the Buffalo nickel. (But with no buffalo on the helmet.) https://t.co/0dzPWiHUHA

The Bills have the easiest way to please fans with the alternate uniform by just announcing the red helmet would be used multiple times throughout the season. Instead they roll out those grey shitboxes. pic.twitter.com/BdkFIT1GdI
