The temperature might have risen in the past few days, but it’ll still be icy in Nashville on Thursday night.
The Cowboys are debuting their new “arctic” uniforms against the Titans this week on “Thursday Night Football.” The special color rush look features white throwback jerseys, white pants and a new white helmet complete with white face masks.
Why do the Cowboys have white helmets?

The wintery look is an apt choice, considering the cold front that has swept through the United States over the past week and sent temperatures plummeting for the holidays.
The unique jersey combination was actually unveiled by the Cowboys all the way back in August, but Thursday night will be the first time they’ve donned them in a competitive game.

The white jersey features navy accents rather than the usual royal blue, while white pants replace the silver color typically worn as a part of Dallas’ home uniforms.
The throwback white helmets are being introduced as a result of the NFL allowing the use of alternate helmets for the 2022 season. They are complete with white face masks and crisp navy striping, with the signature Cowboys star a darker shade of blue than we’re used to seeing.
Here’s a closer look at the helmets that will be used on Thursday:
