Every Super Bowl features a special patch for each team on their jerseys to commemorate the title game. That will be no different for Super Bowl 60 between the New England Patriots and New England Patriots – with an added flair.
Both the Patriots and Seahawks will wear a patch with ‘USA 250’ on it commemorating the U.S.’s semiquincentennial, or 250 years since the signing of the Declaration of Independence.
The jerseys will feature the USA 250 patch on the right chest area for both teams.
The patches are piling up for the Seahawks as the franchise celebrated its 50th season this year. They’ve had a patch commemorating that all season and have one for the Super Bowl logo as well.
The NFL began celebrating the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence in Week 18.
‘The NFL is proud to participate in celebrating America’s 250th anniversary,’ NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said in a statement in November. ‘The story of the NFL reflects the story of America, and the American spirit of resilience, innovation and teamwork has helped football grow into a cultural pastime that unites us all. We are excited to honor our country’s history and celebrate our collective future.’

The primary footballs used during games in 2026 include an ‘America 250’ logo and there’s a similar graphic stenciled on the sidelines at games, too. The coin used for the Super Bowl coin toss will have that logo as well.
This isn’t something entirely new for the league. The NFL did something similar in 1976, celebrating 200 years of the U.S. with special helmet decals and jersey patches.
According to a release from Fanatics, the USA 250 patches will also be featured during other marquee sporting events, including the NBA Finals, July 4 MLB games, Stanley Cup Final, WrestleMania 42 and the UFC event planned at the White House.
