Now it’s time for some updates that don’t have much to update:

Atlanta United President Darren Eales said the TV partnership is still being reviewed by attorneys. An announcement could be made at any point. They aren’t sure if the announcement will include an event, or will be a simple release from the team, league and partner.

There will be a shindig to unveil the already-leaked away jersey, but Eales isn’t sure when. It will happen before the season starts on March 5 against New York Red Bulls at Georgia Tech’s Bobby Dodd Stadium. The club is working with Adidas on a plan.
