Linebackers have worn 90-99 for a good while. The Bears had Hunter Hillenmyer (92) and Leonard Floyd (94), but around the league there was/were Elvis Dumervil, DeMarcus Ware, Brian Orakpo, Shaun Phillips, among others.

Yeah I know, but since they're redoing the numbers, there's no reason for them to still need 90-99. They're effectively saying that LBs and DLs get the exclusive use of 90-99, but QBs - the most important players - have to share with everyone else (including LBs.) I don't see why a LB should have more options than a QB, and have overlapping ones at that. 2 "The views expressed here are mine and do not reflect the official opinion of my employer or the organization through which the Internet was accessed."

I don't see why a LB should have more options than a QB, and have overlapping ones at that. Only logic I see is there are up to 4 LB’s on the field at any time, meanwhile most teams don’t have half that many QB’s dress each week. Doesn’t make it right though, give them 30’s at a maximum 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think it’s chrome or gradient, but instead pearlescent to look different colors depending on the light and angle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On 4/9/2021 at 10:22 PM, Cujo said: This has never mattered. Oh, yes it has. Until 2017, teams had to choose whether they were a black-shoe team or a white-shoe team, and all cleats had to be one of those as a dominant color. In 2002, Payton Manning tried to mark the death of Johnny Unitas by wearing black cleats, as Johnny U did in Baltimore. The NFL prohibited it, because the Colts had become a white-cleat team by that time. They even threatened Manning with a fine "of at least $25,000" if he wore the "wrong" color shoes. So yeah, cleat color used to matter. A lot. 6 The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
