Jaguars meet 24th-ranked Green Wave in New Orleans on Saturday night
Head coach Kane Wommack said the Jaguars won’t wear the “Home of Mardi Gras” bumper plate decal on Saturday night, but will wear the Mardi Gras logos on the right side of their helmets. The Jaguars have become known for switching up their helmet logos during Wommack’s first two seasons in Mobile, with past examples featuring tributes to Mobile native Hank Aaron and the U.S.S. Alabama battleship and a different Mardi Gras logo.
“We’re very proud of our Mardi Gras here; they are, too,” Wommack said. “I think we’ve got the edge by 154 years. … We’re proud of being the birthplace of Mardi Gras, and we like to wear those things on our helmets from time-to-time.” South Alabama wide receiver Devin Voisin is the player model in the video, and will wear No. 5 as the Jaguars’ team captain for Saturday’s game at Tulane. A different player wears No. 5 each game for the Jaguars in honor of former South Alabama running back Anthony Mostella, who was killed in a motorcycle accident in 2010.
“We just put that on there to spice things up a little bit,” Voisin said. “… We do pay attention to it, just to match up our sleeves with our jersey or facemask or whatever. But we don’t really get into what logo we’re wearing on the helmet.”
