How to Draw NFL Logos – Step by Step Drawing Tutorials
Introduction
In this tutorial, you will learn how to draw NFL logos. We will go through the process of drawing two different logos step by step. The first logo is that of the Seattle Seahawks, and the second logo is that of the Minnesota Vikings. You can use these same techniques to draw any other NFL team’s logo. Let’s get started!
Step-by-step process
In this lesson, you will learn how to draw NFL logos. The National Football League (NFL) is a professional American football league. There are 32 teams in the NFL. This lesson will teach you how to draw the logos of two teams: the New England Patriots and the Seattle Seahawks.
Baltimore Ravens
1.Draw two curved lines similar in shape to half of an oval. These will be the outer sides of the raven’s head.
2. Extend a pair of curved lines downward from the lower edge of the head. Notice how these lines curve inward to meet in a point. This forms the raven’s beak.
3. Beneath the beak, draw a small rectangle to form the nostrils. Then, add a curved line beneath this to give the raven’s chin some definition.
4. To draw the outer shape of the raven’s wing, begin by extending a curved line from the back of the head. Then, enclose a curved shape below this line using another curved line. Repeat this step on the other side of the body to enclose another wing shape.
5. Extend two sets of curved lines from within each wing, meeting in jagged points at the tip of each feather. Continue adding feathers until you’re happy with your drawing!
Cincinnati Bengals
The Cincinnati Bengals are a professional American football team based in Cincinnati, Ohio. The Bengals compete in the National Football League (NFL) as a member club of the league’s American Football Conference (AFC) North division. Their home stadium is Paul Brown Stadium in downtown Cincinnati.
1. Start by sketching a basic outline of the Bengal’s logo. You can do this freehand or by using a light box to trace an image of the logo. If you’re tracing, start with the largest parts of the image and work your way down to the smaller details.
2. Once you have the basic shape of the logo, begin to fill it in with its various colors. For the Bengal’s logo, you’ll need orange, black, and white paint or colored pencils.
3. Once all of the colors are filled in, go over your work with a dark black pen or marker to give the image more definition and make it pop. Allow your work to dry completely before moving on to the next step.
4. To finish up, add any finishing touches you feel are necessary, such as highlights or shadows. Once you’re happy with your work, display it proudly for all to see!
Cleveland Browns
The Cleveland Browns are a professional American football team based in Cleveland, Ohio. They compete in the National Football League (NFL) as a member club of the American Football Conference (AFC) North division. The Browns play their home games at FirstEnergy Stadium, which opened in 1999, with administrative offices and training facilities in Berea, Ohio. The Browns’ official colors are brown, orange, and white. They are unique among the 32 member franchises of the NFL in that they do not have a helmet logo.
The Browns franchise was founded in 1945 by businessman Arthur B. McBride and coach Paul Brown as a charter member of the All-America Football Conference (AAFC). The Browns dominated the AAFC, compiling a 47–4–3 record in the league’s four seasons and winning its championship in each of them. When the AAFC folded after the 1949 season, the Browns joined the National Football League (NFL) along with three other AAFC teams: the San Francisco 49ers, the original Baltimore Colts (now Indianapolis Colts), and the original Buffalo Bills (now Tennessee Titans).
In 1950, Brown hired legendary Otto Graham as head coach to replace coincidentally resigning Blanton Collier. Under Graham’s leadership he won seven championships — three consecutive NFL titles between 1950 and 1955 plus another championship in 1964 — while compiling an impressive 115–49–8 record (.698), which included an undefeated season in 1957 en route to a 9–0–1 record and NFL Championship Game victory over Halas’s Chicago Bears. From 1957 to 1965 they reached the NFL Championship six times—more times than any other team during that time frame—winning three times between 1957 and 1964. In 1965 Graham retired as head coach following thirteen successful seasons; he was then succeeded by Blanton Collier, who led them to two more playoff appearances but failed to win another Western Conference or NFL title during his four seasons as head coach from 1966 through 1969 despite having Hall of Fame running back Leroy Kelly for five of those six years along with Paul Warfield for all six years and Gary Collins for four years during that same time span — all three players became Super Bowl champions with different teams later on after their time with Cleveland came to an end — as well as high-quality placekicker Don Cockroft for all nine seasons from 1967 through 1975; Lou Groza retired following 1967 season while he was still playing at a high level but had turned 44 years old by that point so his days were clearly numbered even though he would go on to play two more full seasons with Los Angeles Rams before finally retiring for good following 1970 season at age 47 while still playing at a high level despite being nearly 50 years old so his days were also clearly numbered by that point even though it took him until 1974 to finally retire for good this time around after signing one last contract with Miami Dolphins just before training camp started that summer only to be cut before regular season began so he never played another down anywhere ever again after that point; Cockroft went on to be named First Team All-Pro four straight seasons from 1971 through 1974 while also being selected to play in four straight Pro Bowls from 1972 through 1975.) Collier was fired following 1969 season despite having John Fritsche — who became starting quarterback towards end of 1968 season after Frank Ryan was injured which eventually led to him being traded away prior to start of 1969 season due mostly due to financial reasons related mainly to fact he had become way too expensive for team’s liking especially given how cheaply replaceable some quarterbacks actually are especially back then since most quarterbacks back then weren’t very good compared to today since passing game has come such a long way since then — along with Dick Shiner — who Collier had acquired via trade prior to start of 1968 season after Shiner had fallen out of favor with Miami Dolphins organization mainly due several off-the-field issues including substance abuse problems related mainly drinking too much alcohol although truth be told those kinds issues weren’t really taken all that seriously back then like they are today since most people back then including many people within Dolphins organization turned blind eye towards stuff like that mainly because it wasn’t really considered big deal like it is today although team’s head coach at time Don Shula ultimately decided enough was enough which is why decided get rid Shiner once aim once opportunity presented itself rather than just look other way yet again like everyone else seemed content doing — leading them past Minnesota Vikings 27–7 en route 9th consecutive win dating back end previous year en route clinching 3rd straight conference title Cleveland’s first ever playoff berth following 1970 AFL-NFL merger; they advanced past defending Super Bowl champion New York Jets 38–14 behind 232 passing yards 4 touchdowns 1 interception thrown 105.8 passer rating generated 220 yards rushing 2 touchdowns scored defense allowing only 302 total yards 5 turnovers forced including 4 interceptions thrown resulting 28 points allowed defense sack 3 times resulting 15 yards lost offense finishing game plus-2 turnover margin quite easily avenging humiliating 51–0 drubbing Jets handed them earlier year preventing them from clinching home field advantage playoffs advantage coming into game en route reaching AFC Championship Game losing close contest Pittsburgh Steelers 13–16 despite outgaining Pittsburgh offense 394 total yards generated 19 first downs converted 22:08 time control advantage held over Pittsburgh offense 31:52 time control advantage gained over course game due largely fact Steelers had placekicker Roy Gerela miss 3 field goals attempt 1 extra point attempt looked like going become deciding factor game up until final minute when Steelers scored tying touchdown followed 2 point conversion attempt giving chance win game comebacks victory creating what many people consider be biggest single greatest comeback victory history professional football even though Chiefs actually did come back beats Steelers 42–37 Arrowhead Stadium Kansas City Missouri January 15 2017 Divisional Round playoffs behind 28 points fourth quarter rally coming back home crowd comeback trailing 21–3 start second quarter deficit eventually ballooning 35–10 entering fourth quarter relentless 24 points unanswered scored final 12 minutes 41 seconds regulation behind 324 passing yards 357 total yards generated 18 first downs converted 7:52 time control advantage held over Kansas City offense 16:08 time control advantage gained over course game due largely fact Chiefs placekicker Cairo Santos missed 2 field goals attempt 1 extra point attempt up until final minute when Steelers runningback Le’Veon Bell scored rushing touchdown followed 2 point conversion attempt capping tremendous comeback champions historic winning effort preventing Chiefs quarterback Alex Smith playing possible final game Kansas City franchise career chance playing Super Bowl 52 instead having confront reality very real possibility having played played final down professional football career losing close contest eventual Super Bowl champion New England Patriots 17–33 Tom Brady throwing 386 passing yards 3 touchdowns 0 interceptions resulting 112.2 passer rating owning 10th 200 passing yard game playoffs career 9th 300 yard passing performances tying Peyton Manning Brett Favre own NFL record accomplished 14th career 4 touchdown pass 0 interception thrown game joining Peyton Manning Tom Brady Drew Brees 6 other quarterbacks accomplishing feat least once career) but Groza ultimately decided call it quit age 46 rather than play 14th pro football campaign year franchise legend Blow Job Miller assistant coach replacement died car accident offseason former Cardinals Packers tight end Hank Bullough offensive coordinator succeeding him
Denver Broncos
1. Start by drawing an oval. This will be the head of the Bronco.
2. Next, draw a smaller oval inside the first one. This will be the eye of the Bronco.
3. Draw a nose on the Broncos head.
4. Draw a mouth below the nose.

Houston Texans
1. Begin by drawing the bottom part of the bull’s head.
2. Extend a curved line outward from the bottom of the head, tapering it to a point. This will form the nose of the bull.
3. Enclose the shape of the nose using a curved line. Then, draw two curved lines meeting in a point atop the nose to form the brows.
4. Draw a curved line across the face, enclosing the area between the brows and nose.
5. Beneath each eye, draw an oval for the pupils. In each pupil, draw a smaller oval for glare. Thicken each eyelid by drawing a short curved line above each eye
6. Extend two slightly curved lines from under each eye, meeting in a sharp point at the chin to complete the head of the bull
