Chiefs to wear white vs. Eagles — a color that has delivered success in Super Bowl history

The last time the Kansas City Chiefs beat the Philadelphia Eagles in the Super Bowl they wore white. Hoping for a similar outcome in Super Bowl LIX, the defending back-to-back champions will sport the same jerseys while their opponents go with green.

As the designated “home” team, the Eagles had first choice at jersey color and went with green. That opened the door for the Chiefs to go back to wearing white, like they did in Super Bowl LVII in Arizona two years ago.

While the Chiefs have won the last two Super Bowls wearing both of their colors — red and white — history favors teams that don white.

Out of the previous 58 Super Bowls, 37 teams wearing white have gone on to win the game — a success rate of 64% compared to 36% for non-white jerseys (21 winning teams). Most recently, 16 of the last 20 champions wore white, with one of those four losers being the San Francisco 49ers last year against the red-wearing Chiefs.

Since 2005, the only teams to win the Super Bowl while not wearing white are the 2011 Packers, the 2018 Eagles, and the 2020 and 2024 Chiefs. Kansas City wore red in 2021 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but lost the game, 31-9.

Since the Super Bowl is a neutral-site game, the NFL alternates the “home” and “away” teams between each conference every year. The NFC is designated as the “home” team in even-numbered years, while the AFC gets the honor in odd-numbered seasons.

The Chiefs, who are 3-1 when wearing red in Super Bowls, opened as 1.5-point favorites on BetMGM.

White jerseys haven’t just meant wins in the Super Bowl, it’s also meant covering spreads. Teams donning white jerseys are 14-6 against the spread in the last 20 Super Bowls. Keep that mind when you’re making your wagers over the next two weeks.
