The Steelers will wear their Color Rush uniforms this week when they play the Miami Dolphins at Acrisure Stadium on Monday Night Football, the first time they have worn the uniforms during the 2025 season. It will also be a night when the organization welcomes three new members to the Hall of Honor in Joey Porter Sr., Maurkice Pouncey and Ben Roethlisberger.
The Steelers own an 8-3 record when wearing the Color Rush uniforms.
"I think the Color Rush is awesome," said linebacker T.J. Watt. "I think it's great for the fans to bring energy, and for us to have a different look. An all-black look is always cool.
"We usually perform really well in them, so I'm excited to wear them."
The Color Rush uniform has become a favorite with players and fans alike, a monochromatic look that was first introduced to wear primarily on Thursday Night Football.
The uniform is a black jersey with gold numbers and gold stripes on the sleeves, while the pants are all black, with a gold stripe.
"It's kind of a stealth look," said linebacker Patrick Queen. "I like the all black uniform with a little gold highlight in them and the block numbers. You can't beat the block numbers, so it's an all-around good uniform.
"It's a very discreet, lowkey look. I don't even know how to describe it. It's just cool.
"It's a great look, the all black with the block members and a little highlight of gold is a good look.
"I think it gives off an intimidating look. It's a night game, primetime game. That goes hand-in-hand. Night game, all black, can't beat it."

The Steelers first wore the uniforms on Christmas Day in 2016 when they defeated the Baltimore Ravens, 31-27, to win the AFC North. The team also wore them in 2017 against the Tennessee Titans, a 40-17 win.
"Obviously, we have the traditional uniforms that stand out," said receiver Calvin Austin III. "But the all black aspect, it gives you that different feel and it's definitely just a cool looking uniform in general.
"It brings energy when we wear them too. When you see us coming out of the tunnel in them, it definitely gets the vibes of being intimidating and like PQ said, stealth."
In 2018 the team wore them twice, the first time on Thursday Night Football when they defeated the Carolina Panthers, 52-21. They wore them a second time against the New England Patriots, a 17-10 win.
The team also wore them twice in 2019, including a win over the Miami Dolphins, 27-14, on Monday Night Football. In 2020 the Steelers defeated the Ravens, 19-14, in a Color Rush game. They defeated the Chicago Bears wearing them in 2021.
Most recently, the Steelers defeated the New York Giants, 26-18, on Monday Night Football at Acrisure Stadium.
"It's nice to get to put on black pants, change it up a little bit," said linebacker Payton Wilson. "We usually wear all yellow pants, so it's nice to change it a little.
"The Color Rush uniforms are cool, and especially ours because they're all black and are all business."
