About this listen
Do you think a player can just ask for his "lucky number" on draft day? Um, no! Effective in 2021, NFL legislates under rule 5, section 1, Article 2 of their rule book the 6 categories of jersey numbers and which position is eligible for that number. The sheer size of rosters (53 players in total, plus practice squad players) can make it difficult for teams to assign numbers to certain position groups, especially for teams which have more than a few retired numbers. And for whatever reason, stay away from 46! Of all numbers, 29 is considered "lean and fast."
