Patrick Mahomes Helps Texas Tech Debut Sleek New Black Jerseys

The all-black design comes with red accents and carries the State Farm logo as an official game sponsor mark. Mahomes' Gladiator branding shows up on the jersey too, tying the Red Raiders' Friday night look to the Kansas City Chiefs star and longtime State Farm pitchman who played his college ball in Lubbock. The partnership traces back to 2024, when the program rolled out its first Mahomes-branded set.

For fans packing Jones AT&T Stadium or watching from home, the new look gives the Houston matchup an extra jolt of attention beyond the scoreboard. Uniform reveals like this tend to spread fast on social media, and having Mahomes' name and brand attached only raises the visibility for a program looking to keep Lubbock in the national conversation. Merchandise could follow too, giving Red Raider fans another way to rep the black and red.

A hometown Chiefs legend now has his fingerprints on a Texas Tech football jersey two years running, and Friday night will be the first time fans see how the newest version actually plays under the lights.
