| 1980 NEWS AND NOTES |
 While the overall original appearance remained intact, the Bengals uniform underwent three alterations in 1980 to constitute a subtle — yet noticeable — uniform change. On the helmet, the team switched facemask colors from gray to black and added black uniform numbers on the back. On the jersey, the team added uniform numbers to the sides of the sleeves, just above the existing stripes. And on the pants, the orange stripe was widened to about twice its original thickness, though the width of the surrounding black stripes remained the same. |
