R Documentation

NFL colors

Description

Returns a named character vector of hex colors for an NFL team. Teams cover the 2026 NFL season. Call colorr.teams("nfl") for the full list of team names.

Usage

nfl.colors(
  set = c("bears", "bengals", "bills", "broncos", "browns", "buccaneers", "cardinals",
    "chargers", "chiefs", "colts", "commanders", "cowboys", "dolphins", "eagles",
    "falcons", "giants", "jaguars", "jets", "lions", "niners", "packers", "panthers",
    "patriots", "raiders", "rams", "ravens", "redskins", "saints", "seahawks",
    "steelers", "texans", "titans", "vikings"),
  legacy = FALSE
)

Arguments

`set`	Character string naming an NFL team. The retired team name `"redskins"` still resolves, to the renamed franchise.
`legacy`	Logical. If `TRUE`, return the palette that shipped with colorr 1.0.1 instead of the current one, so older figures stay reproducible. Not every team has a legacy palette; teams added since 1.0.1 will throw an error.

Value

Named character vector of hex color strings.
