Hi to all,
I see who in last 2 seasons more players used a jersey with low number.
Usually thats numbers are used only by a QB, P and K.
At now more WR and some LB and DB used that. Question: is a trendy or rules change?
Thanks

M.

Rules change in 2021 allowed more options for players to use a wider variety of numbers.

The National Football League numbering system dates from a large-scale change of their rules in 1973, subsequently amended in various minor ways. As of 2021, players are generally required to wear numbers within ranges based on their positions as shown in the following table.

Number
range QB RB WR TE OL DL LB DB K / P
1–9 Yes Yes Yes Yes No No Yes Yes Yes
10–19 Yes Yes Yes Yes No No Yes Yes Yes
20–29 No Yes Yes Yes No No Yes Yes No
30–39 No Yes Yes Yes No No Yes Yes No
40–49 No Yes Yes Yes No No Yes Yes No
50–59 No No No No Yes Yes Yes No No
60–69 No No No No Yes Yes No No No
70–79 No No No No Yes Yes No No No
80–89 No Yes Yes Yes No No No No No
90–99 No No No No No Yes Yes No No
