For the first time in 50 years, we will see an NFL player wear No. 0 on their jersey during the 2023 season.
On Tuesday, the NFL voted to allow skill players (anyone who isn’t on the offensive or defensive line) to wear No. 0 on their uniform if they so choose. It’s admittedly a minor aesthetic change overall, but it’s one that some players should absolutely take advantage of if they can.
With an entire catalog of numbers now available to most guys in the league, some took to Twitter to react to the news. Some, like a certain Jacksonville Jaguars playmaker, even maintained that they’d be making the switch immediately. But not everyone was a fan of the No. 0, especially of its limitations on positions.
