SALT LAKE CITY, Utah – The Los Angeles Chargers unveiled new uniforms for the 2020 season and featured former BYU defensive back Michael Davis in the new threads.
The Chargers revealed six new uniforms on Tuesday, April 21. “We evolved it, simplified it, took what YOU loved about it, and made it even better,” the team said.
Davis was shown wearing a No. 43 away version of the team’s new uniforms on images posted to the team’s website and social media accounts.

“Quintessentially Southern California, the Chargers are relaunching what is very much an aspirational brand. Drawing inspiration from California in the 1960’s, we set up shop with Nike and the NFL to modify a classic. Staying true to Powder Blue and Sunshine Gold, we brought both colors to the forefront of the uniforms as a reflection of our diverse, outdoor culture,” the Chargers wrote about the new unis on their team website. “Whether it’s a Sunday cruising down the Venice Boardwalk or taking in the sights and sounds at the Olvera Street Marketplace, there’s an unmistakable energy that’s unique to Los Angeles. And while it’s not easy to reflect a vibe in uniforms, we set out to do just that with a bold, vibrant, and electric update that pays tribute to our AFL roots.”

Los Angeles’ uniform coincides with the new era for the team in 2020. Long time franchise quarterbacks Philips Rivers parted ways with the organization this past offseason and signed with the Indianapolis Colts.
After moving from San Diego and spending the last couple of seasons playing in a Major League Soccer stadium, the Chargers are scheduled to join the Los Angeles Rams in the new SoFi Stadium this fall.
