About the Seattle Seahawks palette

The Seattle Seahawks were founded in 1976 and compete in the National Football Conference of the National Football League. Their primary colour, College Navy #002244, is a very dark, muted indigo.

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.

Within the Western Division the Seahawks face Arizona Cardinals, Los Angeles Rams and San Francisco 49ers. Those are the matchups where two palettes appear in one frame, so they are the pairings most worth checking for a clash.
