I am clueless why Justin Fileds could not wear #1?

Knowing the Bears....You are probably 100% correct.

 

Justin Fields hints at being #2 for the Steelers on Instagram.

Funny, I thought the Steelers retired #2 last year after Mason had those 4 really good games that made him a Hall of Famer.


I am now thinking if the Steelers deny him the #1 spot, he should double down and go with #11.

 

I think it's good. Focus on new beginnings with a new number. Don't hang onto the past. Focus on being a QB that can run instead of a RB that can throw.

 

I just read that Cordarrelle Patterson wants jersey number 84, but it sounded like the Steelers may have told him he can't wear #84.

 

Hu Flung Poo?

 

Apparently....Kenny Pickett.

 

CRAZY: QB Justin Fields does not get the #1, LB Patrick Queen gets #6, and RB Cordarrelle Patterson takes the #84.

 

Why do you care so much about what number Fields is going to wear?

 

Did anyone guess they couldn't give #1 to Fields, because George Pickens will be wearing it this year?

Or better yet #8

 

Fixed it for you

 

I don't see a date on that article, but I can't help but think it was published April 1st.

 

Funny story about Jeresy number if you take the Jersey Number of a current player, you are then required to by all the unsold jersey of the player who is giving up his number. Kyle Pitts had agreed to give Kirk Cousins his number 8, but when Cousins found out he would have to buy every unsold Kyle Pitts jersey currently on the market he decided not to take number 8.

I wonder who gets to actually keep the jerseys? Seems like it wouldn't take much to change the name on the back of the jersey, and would some dude in a truck have pulled up to Cousin's house with sever hundred thousand dollars' worth of Jerseys?

 

Do teams have the same responsibility to buy up all the unsold merchandise when they release/trade a player? Because if they don't, it sounds like they're jacking the players.

 

It’s true. DAlvin Cook wanted to switch from 33 to 4. Doing so would have cost him 1.5 million buying up unsold jerseys. He waited a year until the 33 jerseys were sold and then switched.

 

The same reason he does for every other Steelers player that gets denied “1”. Nobody knows

 

Awesome, Maddox n Picket made that number a classic.....

 

Personally, I don’t care what number he wears. As long as he can get the ball from point A to B.

 

live gotten that a few times but the only time it makes me feel special is from a good looking woman in traffic. Warm fuzzy feelingin all over.

 

There is no “no 1” on a Steelers team

 

Why would you have the backup QB wear #1?
