Yesterday, the NFL made a rule change that will allow players to wear No. 0 in games beginning in the upcoming 2023 season.

Former Alabama Crimson Tide wide receiver, Calvin Ridley, is set to be the first player to wear the No. 0 for the Jacksonville Jaguars this year he announced on social media.

My guess is they don't let anyone take 0 or any other open number until after the draft at this point.  Think that's why none of the new guys have numbers assigned to them yet, at least it doesn't show them on the roster on the team's website.

Only makes sense, we know we're about to draft a QB at #1, no point in letting someone take a number they might want and then make them buy it off them (yes, even though both the guys we're looking at already are taken).

But it would be cool for Corners to take it 0, fits the position.  Too bad we can't have a massive 350 lbs DT take it, would just look funny on them like I've seen some college players do.

Who?

The roster on the team's site doesn't show numbers for any of them, figured that would be the most accurate place for that information.

The roster page is a little slow to update sometimes. Honestly the site in general can be.

      Easily. To be able to plug in a backup LT without much drop off from your starter? That could mean the difference between playoffs or sitting at home in January. Good/serviceable smart young and healthy LTs that won’t lose you a ball game at reasonable $$ don’t just come along every day. Everyone talks about the most important positions on a football team… backup LT is in the top 10.  Picture next year… the team is scrappy and competitive, 4 and 3 record, second place in the South. Morale is good. devastating run game that Let’s our marginal defense get plenty of rest. We play the Bucs and win, going to 5 and 3, but we lose Ickey to a high ankle sprain. Atl loses that week and are now at 5 and 3 as well. There is no Ickey and no BC because we let him go… and we go in to Atl the next week for a battle of first in the south. Week after that is the Jets…. Now they lose both by 10 and 3, respectively, and fall to 5 and 5 going in to their bye week. Atl is at 7 and 3. Out of typical Panthers desperation, they try to rush Ickey back in to the lineup with a saints game coming up…  Back to good old Panthers football, always playing catchup. Another season at .500 and the fans sadly rejoice in mediocrity, when playoffs were in reach. This team always overestimates its ability to pick up quality o line depth in the draft or FA and it always blows up in their faces. Like Chuba, I see him as being part of the core that Dan is trying to build. Work on his contract now and see if we can come out with something mutually beneficial. I’d consider 3 yrs at $25m to be very fair.

      it would be great to have "double trouble" again, I even had a T- shirt for Williams and Stewart and the double trouble logo, was a great time to be Panthers fan. We shall see...
