PITTSBURGH, PA ? The Steelers will be adorned in black color rush uniforms for their Oct. 28 Monday Night Football game against the New York Giants, and they want their fans attired in the same hue.

The Steelers are encouraging all fans attending the game at Acrisure Stadium to wear black jerseys and attire to align with the color rush garb. The NFL Color Rush monochromatic uniform program ran during Thursday Night Football from 2015-2017; the Steelers have continued the use of the jerseys since then as an alternate uniform.

?Monday Night Football at Acrisure Stadium promises to deliver an electric atmosphere for
fans,? Steelers vice president of sales and marketing Ryan Huzjak said in a statement. ?We?re excited to help build that excitement even further by bringing back the fan-favorite color rush
uniforms.?
