The NFL is looking into a rule change for the 2021 season that would allow teams to use an alternate helmet in games when they wear an alternate jersey.

NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy told Pro Football Talk's Mike Florio in an email that the league is discussing the change that limits teams to just one helmet.

"There will be no change for the 2020 season," McCarthy wrote. "There are ongoing discussions for a potential change for the 2021 season, but no decisions have been made."
