Please don't allow a WR wear #1. Why does this even matter?
It's a changing world!

Me too. Maybe they will end up wearing sponsors on their jerseys at some point like the NBA.

This would be the updated look:
QB, K, P: 1-19
RB, TE, WR: 1-49, 80-89
DB: 1-49
LB: 1-59, 90-99
OL: 50-79
DL: 50-79, 90-99
I like the idea of the NFL allowing single digit numbers for back-seven players on defense and all skill-players on offense. Mostly, I feel that way because I think it looks cool (I was a high school defensive end who wore No. 4). And I also get that Chiefs GM Brett Veach pushed the change because, between retired numbers and expanded practice squads, K.C. flat-out ran out of numbers last year (I’ve also been told that Veach likes the way single digits look, too, like a lot of players do). But a buddy of mine did give me something to think about on this, something I hadn’t really thought about: This could be an anti-offense change. Allowing for linebackers to wear low numbers, and become less distinguishable from defensive backs, would make it harder for quarterbacks, and offenses in general, to ID guys presnap, which could lead to more free runs at the passer or mix-ups in protection. That, of course, flies in the face of most changes we’ve seen in the NFL over the years. And yes, the more liberal numbering system works in college and high school, but there’s less substitution and specialization at those levels, making it less of an issue. All of which has left me just a little torn on the idea of this. Which, again, I really like on paper.
I like being able to more easily identify positions and players with the existing numbering system when watching the games, its easier to keep track of who is in the game and who isnt IMO since you can pick them out by position when looking at the numbers instead of having to try and memorize the whole roster.
Thanks for the five day earworm.

Yeah I wish I still had the tee shirts, Springsteen, Pattie Smith, Elvis Costello, Clash, Kinks, Gang of Four, M-80's concert. Damn, went to school with Dez Dickerson and worked at 7The street entry and Jay's Longhorn, production repair. Blown amps, and general issues with continuity, got me into engineering.

Please don't allow a WR wear #1. Why does this even matter?What if the WR identifies as a #1? Or even #2? These wrongs must be righted!!!
There are some hurdles for veteran players to change their numbers. But get ready to see some receivers and running backs wearing single-digits soon.
ok then, I want to see a kicker with a 90s number on.
Defensive backs: 1–49
Running backs, full backs, tight ends, H-backs, and wide receivers: 1–49 and 80-89
Offensive linemen: 50–79;
Defensive linemen: 50–79 and 90–99;
Linebackers: 1–59 and 90–99.
