Graphic Designer Rob Boyd Creates EPL X NFL Project

Graphic Sports Designer Rob Boyd has whipped up intriguing project which sees an Atlantic crossover of styles. Mixing up the Uniteds and Citys of the Premier League with the Raiders and Patriots of the NFL, Boyd has re-imagined each Premier League club crest with an American twist.

Fans of both sports will notice some clever links between the modifications; notably on Crystal Palace meets Philadelphia Eagles & Sheffield United's Steel links morphing into Pittsburgh Steelers, but we won't spoil all the fun, have a flick through them and notice them for yourself.

In Boyd's own words, "I'm a fan of football on both sides of the Atlantic and have often been intrigued at just how different the English Premier League logos are to that of the NFL. So I decided to create this project and 'Americanize' each of the 20 teams competing in the 2019/20 Premier League season by mixing them up with a NFL counterpart to see how they would turn out." Turned out pretty impressive, Rob.
