The team has always shied away from wearing black for home games early in the season in attempt to combat the hot early fall days in the Carolinas even though I think that wouldn’t be much of a factor with the current jersey materials. They’ll wear blue for three of their first four home games with the lone exception being a game in white against the Dolphins in Week 5.

In all, they’ll wear white for five of their first seven games. They’ll wear black for their last four home games starting in Week 10.

It’s disappointing for me personally because the black jerseys are my favorite, and I hate that the Panthers wear them so few times each season. They’ve almost been relegated to alternate uniforms at this point.
