What will it mean for the association? Albeit the NFL has a characterized scope of shirt numbers for each position, it has been more open as of late to allow players to have their direction. As a matter of fact, Jim Otto played for the Oakland Plunderers from 1960 to 1974 wearing the famous twofold zero shirt.
Then, at that point, Johnny Olszewski of the Pittsburgh Steelers (1953-1957) used to take the field wearing the number zero. Essentially, Ken Burrough wore the twofold zero during his experience with the New Orleans Holy people in 1981.
Nonetheless, players tend to not pick the number zero and the absence of late instances of players brandishing it focuses at its disagreeability. With its renewed introduction, a restoration of the pullover number could be in the offing as additional players are probably going to take that number currently, remembering the people who will join the association for the impending NFL Draft.
