Short answer: NFL coaches are wearing green today as part of the league’s Salute to Service campaign to honor military service members, with proceeds supporting veterans and related programs. Details:

  • Salute to Service is an annual NFL initiative in November that features military-themed gear and stadium decorations to honor service members and their families. The broader campaign includes green sideline gear and other camouflage-inspired elements on game day across all teams.
  • The goal is to raise awareness and funds for veterans, active duty service members, and related organizations; the campaign has supported organizations such as the Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors, the United Service Organizations, and the Pat Tillman Foundation, with substantial cumulative donations reported in recent years.
  • Variants of the campaign can include color-themed apparel (green tones) and other military-inspired visuals on the sidelines, aligning with veterans’ recognition and fundraising goals for the month of November around Veterans Day.
