Eagles submit proposal to add 0 as eligible jersey number
 

Since NFL teams are running out of numbers, we'd probably be likely to see somebody wearing 0 on just about every team. And you know there's going to be some diva WR who thinks this is neat. And there's probably going to be a couple future top 10 QBs to get drafted in the next years. I could see one of them picking up 0. You're going to have a face of your franchise wearing 0.

Yeah... offseason topic. Whatever. I'll bet Rain Man will think this topic is interesting.

Mark it ****in zero!

58008

Well it's really nothing so...

The Chiefs should have eight 69s, and five 420s.

I thought this was going to be in honor of their historic defensive lines performance in the Super Bowl.

I'm ok with it as long as 00 is also an option.

Awesome, haha

I've suggested this before - if a player takes a number a team has previously retired, shadowbox the number on the jersey like the way the 49ers did back in the early 90's. Imagine this on a Chiefs uni but with a yellow shadow on the number....

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 would be in favor but think coaches will tell owners to vote no for 0 and maybe yes for 00 because cover zero is something the QB yells during cadence if he expects cover zero blitz.

The NFL films movie of Super Bowl has Mahomes yell cover zero before signaling for jet motion on the Skyy Moore TD.

They need to have fractions. If a player really wants a number and it's retired, they get a fraction. Perhaps something like 8 1/2.

Could you also have decimal points? And if so, is 8.5 a different player than 8 1/2?

Somebody should request the infinity symbol.
