If a player changes his position during his playing career in the NFL and such change moves him out of a category specified above he must be issued an approprite new jersey numeral. Any request to wear a numeral for a special position not specified (e.g. H-back) must be made to the commissioner. During the preseason period when playing rosters are larger the league will allow duplication and other temproary deviations from the numbering scheme specified above, but the rule must be adheres to for all players during the regular season and postseason. Clubs must make numerals available to adhere to the rule even if it requires putting back into circulation a numeral that has been retired or withheld for othr reasons. sorry the bold murdered my eyes thank you for the article [/QUOTE]
