NFL owners have reportedly passed three new rules for the 2021 season.
Per Albert Breer of The MMQB, the league has relaxed its rules on jersey-number designations, meaning that players at a specific position are no longer limited to certain numbers.
For instance, the NFL rulebook requires quarterbacks to wear uniform numbers between 1-19 and running backs must wear numbers between 20-49. Players will now have more flexibility in that area.
Breer also reported an extra-point proposal from the Chicago Bears and a double-forward pass rule proposed by the Los Angeles Rams passed.
