Sebastian Janikowski has been playing in the NFL for nearly two decades and had spent his entire career with the Oakland Raiders until this year. Now he’s with the Seattle Seahawks, and seeing him in the green and blue was jarring for many fans.
Simply put, seeing Janikowski in a uniform other than the Raiders’ silver and black was weird.

I don't think any player looks weirder in their new jersey this year than Sebastian Janikowski as a Seahawk.

So weird to see Janikowski kick an extra point for the Seahawks

It's still so weird to see Sebastian Janikowski in a Seahawks uniform.

Janikowski’s jersey seemingly being too large also didn’t help perception. The 40-year-old went 1-for-2 on his first two field goal attempts with Seattle.
