Navy on Black is the lowest-contrast combination, and the one a designer reaches for by accident when both teams want their signature colour.

What the verdict means

A colour clash takes two measurements, not one. Perceptual difference says how far apart two colours look to the eye with hue included; lightness contrast says what survives when colour is removed. Judged on lightness alone, a navy and a purple can score identically to navy against itself, which is plainly wrong. Judged on hue alone, two colours that separate clearly in colour can merge completely in a monochrome broadcast.

For Titans and Raiders the two figures are ΔE 25.2 and 1.33:1, which together give a verdict of greyscale clash. They separate by hue but sit at almost the same lightness, so they merge in greyscale and for viewers with red-green colour vision deficiency.

The National Football League divides its thirty-two teams between two conferences, and uniform colour is regulated more tightly here than in any other major league: a team must register its colours with the league, and opposing teams are required to wear contrasting jerseys so that broadcast audiences can tell them apart.
