Gotta admit, even though Otis Taylor isn't in the HOF (blasphemy!) it still bothers me seeing any Chiefs player wearing the number 89 jersey.

That, or put the retired player's name in small text on the number or somewhere. Something to pay honor to the player while still being able to use the number currently.

I think the jersey should go back into play one year after the player's death. Are Bears fans really going to be confused or offended to see Bulldog Turner's or George McAfee's jersey number on the field?

Zero is a good number for that fan base.

Make 420 a number LOL

Man its funny how someone can say a number and like 3-5 guys come to mind.

They need to stop retiring numbers.

Just add a "1" and make new numbers three digits. This ain't exactly rocket science. And if they start doing it with linemen, they won't even have to reduce the number size.

Should be Clyde's number next year. It's been his average yards per carry when getting the ball on first down.

I just looked in the official rulebook (https://operations.nfl.com/the-rules/2022-nfl-rulebook/), and while the rules say that jersey numbers must be from 1 through 99, they don't say that the numbers must be whole numbers. I would absolutely go with

Forget the number changes. How about we get "He Hate Me" into the league?

Honestly, retiring a number shouldn't be a thing. It kind of fixes the problem.

Aside from that, I see no issue with having a 0 on the field either.

why is QB and maybe o-line the only positions not using the cool numbers? We need a #90 QB for crying out loud.
