The NFL, likely knowing this, scheduled the two teams to play there anyway.

Players caught wearing it can be fined. The same edict goes for sponsors, who are also told to avoid the color at all costs.

Philadelphia is the designated home team and will wear black helmets, white jerseys, and black pants — the same palette as the Corinthians. It's the first time in the team's history that they will wear that combination of uniforms.

The Packers will sport their white, yellow, and green jerseys, and basically had no choice in choosing their attire.
