Bucco Bruce is back, and so, too, are the Buccaneers creamsicle uniforms.
The Buccaneers announced more than a year ago they would wear the orange uniforms during a game in 2023. Global supply chain issues prevented the return of the iconic uniform in 2022 as the team had hoped.
On Wednesday, the Bucs released a video with their former Bucco Bruce mascot confirming the return of the past.
The team featured orange, red and white as its colors from 1976-96, and the creamsicle throwbacks with the Bucco Bruce helmets made a return each season from 2009-12 before the league implemented a one-helmet rule. After the NFL rescinded the rule in 2021, the Bucs sought to bring back the look.
And it will return this season.
