During the 2015 season, you're going to see gold everywhere as the league prepares forSuper Bowl 50, which will be played on Feb. 7, 2016 and televised by CBS from Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, Calif.
The golden celebration will start at the NFL Draft, where each player who's drafted will be given a team hat with a golden NFL shield logo on the back.

The draft won't be the only place you'll be seeing gold in 2015. A golden NFL shield logo will be painted on the field at every NFL stadium across the country. You can see the "Kickoff Weekend" and playoff logos below.

Gold won't just be on the field either, each team will also be wearing the color on their sideline starting in Week 7. Sideline gear like hats and jackets will be outfitted with gold-trimmed logos. To give you an idea of what the will look like, here's what the gold-trimmedSeahawks logo will look like.

Super Bowl rematches: The 2015 schedule is filled with Super Bowl rematches and the league will encourage each team to celebrate each one of those. Yes, this could turn into a nightmare for Bills fans as Buffalo will have to relive each one of its Super Bowl losses. The Bills lost four consecutive Super Bowls to three different teams (Dallas (2), Washington, New York) and Buffalo will be playing each one of those teams this year. We don't know when those games will be played yet though, the NFL schedule is expected to be announced sometime before the draft.
The first Super Bowl rematch will happen at the Hall of Fame game when the Steelers play the Vikings, a rematch of Super Bowl IX.
Super Bowl homecomings: Individual teams will get a chance to honor the Super Bowlteams of their past during home games in 2015. Look for Super Bowl players to serve as honorary captains and for teams to possibly hold special halftime celebrations.
Super Bowl high school honor roll: One of the more unique ways the NFL will be celebrating Super Bowl 50 is by sending a gold football to every high school in the world that's produced a player or coach who's appeared in a Super Bowl. Think about that for a second, because that's a lot of gold footballs.
