The Green Bay Packers have decided to dump their blue throwback jerseys for something slightly less blue.
The Packers announced this week that the throwback they'll be wearing in 2015 won't be the same throwback they've worn since 2010.
Instead of wearing the blue throwback jersey with the gold circle this year, the Packers are going to wear the blue throwback you see below.
Here they are! The #Packers will wear these historic third jerseys on Oct. 18 vs. the Chargers. https://t.co/MdxKsIgUFd

Aaron Rodgers could probably just wear his college jersey and be just fine.

The Packers third jersey is a throwback to the uniform the Packers wore from 1937-49. The Packers will wear the jersey in Week 6 against the Chargers -- And just for fun, here's a white version of the 1937-49 jersey.
The Packers had been wearing their previous 1929 throwbacks since 2010, but they were allowed to change it up this year thanks to an NFL rule that allows teams to change their alternate uniform once every five years.
The Dolphins also got crazy and added with a uniform change for this year, too.
Back to the Packers though.
When the Packers originally started wearing their 1929 throwbacks in 2010, they wore brown helmets with the jersey. However, the team had to switch to gold helmets in 2013 after the NFL instituted a new policy that only allows each team to wear one helmet.
You can see all three throwbacks below.
The picture with Eddie Lacy is the throwback Green Bay wore in 2013 and 2014, while the picture with Aaron Rodgers is what the team wore in 2010 and 2011.
The team didn't wear an alternate uniform in 2012.
