If an accessory is not visible while the player is in full uniform, it should be allowed. It's literally not affecting gameplay in any way, shape or form. Banning bandanas just gave further evidence that league officials were on a power trip.
As long as it's not visible on the sidelines or during warmups that might fly, but if it shows up any time the player is "on stage" it becomes a problem. Put whatever you want on your jockstrap and no one will care.
I do believe that a large part of this comes down to limiting player empowerment. By not allowing for individuality in their gear, the players become much less distringuishable from their peers and it become harder for them to stand out, making them seem more interchangeable and less valuable as individual contributors in the scope of team success. This leads to less bargaining power and leverage in contract negotations over time.
Has exactly zero to do with these rules. It's a team game and allowing a competition for fashion attention would take away from the game. The NFL has built an impressive product due to its focus on such details.
Ya when millions of people watching your product is how you get paid why should you give free advertisement to a brand that doesn't pay you. Everyone should know this is how these things get funded, by advertisers. Why the fuck should vitamin water get to ride those free coat tails?
The tablets are limited. Windows limits what can and can’t be done with those tablets according to NFL standard policy. Meaning about the only thing you can do is watch film.
Deion’s bandana under the helmet had nothing to do with style. It was about comfort. Some players find the padding and buttons underneath uncomfortable.
Not disagreeing with you. I believe that the reason why they did it was because of potential players rocking "gang colors" if they wore a blue or red one. Which is why they allowed the skull caps.
No one should be even considering a 10 year old helmet. The professional organization that certifies helmets for other sports doesn't recommend using equipment from a certification from over 10 years ago.
Wearing jewelry and watches is dangerous... In high school football practice 1995, I cut my hand playing cornerback, the receiver had on a watch, while I was defending him, his watch slashed me along the side of my pinky finger, our coach made him remove the watch... Sooo I agree with the NFL on this one...
They need to outlaw long hair/dreads. At dome point, someone is going to get his hair caught in between the mask and helmet of another player during an especially violent hit, and one or both players is going to injure, or even break his neck.

@@ICDUMPEPL By the NFL rulebook, hair is considered part of the uniform. Meaning, if I wanted to grab a RB by his dreads and swing him around like a party toy, it is PERFECTLY LEGAL. Now, he and the linemen are going to use you as a hand puppet a few plays later, but it is legal.
@@drak3y Great story, but you've totally missed the point. Again, the player with the long hair is not only doing something that is stupid in terms of risking his own health, but is also putting all of the other players on the field in danger. If you've ever played football, you are aware how things can get wrapped around the screws that affix one's mask to his helmet. So again, if a large strand of hair or dread gets caught in between another player's mask and helmet, and if it occurs when one or both are moving at high speed, one or both may be subjected to the same type of force that is experienced by people who are being dropped through the floor of a scaffold, with one end of a rope around the neck, and the other end tied to a gallows pole.
I remember way back in the day player use to use double sided sticky tape to tape their jerseys to their pads & lightly spray Pam on their jerseys . See their jerseys are made of polyester which is already slippery it just made it harder to hold on to & the sticky tape would make it so the jersey couldn’t be ripped from the pads making it harder to grab , smart ideal , even their pants are polyester so imagine the possibility at that time .
A lot of these (but definitely not all) make a ton of sense. They have to protect their partners from competing brands, so no wonder they outlaw showing other brands. It's no wonder they don't allow a watch on the field - edges could cut an opponent. OBJ just thinks he's so special it'd only apply to him but he's wrong.
@@LossLeadas Nobody will see it, its a cultural thing for many people as well. There is no increased injury risk so there shouldn't be an issue with it, the fact that a bunch of old white billionaires can decide what some guy wears when playing a sport is ridiculous, that should only be the privilege of the researchers who try to increase the safety of the game.
I'm not sure if there is still a policy in place for the colour of cleats any more. Recently A J Brown of the Eagles switched to pink cleats and the announcers claimed he was wearing them so that his daughter could find him on the field. Perhaps they were lying and telling a feel good story.
The players could argue all they want but I'm all for the restrictions. Give every player leeway and the field would look like a carnival. That's why it's called U-N-I-F-O-R-M. It gives a feeling of order and respect.
I don't care what color cleats a player wears. It doesn't affect my enjoyment of the game. However, think of the word "uniform", and it's definition. Many people must follow rules concerning dress at work. Players are paid a lot of money to play a game. They don't like not being able to do whatever they want. How important is this really? It all seems petty and silly to me.
It is mainly about branding and image, which can be worth a lot of money. Like how top NBA players can earn more money though ads and brands the own/ have a stake in. The NFL doing this rules are half about safety and half making players more dependent on the NFL for income and make them more docile.

They are all under contract which means they are obligated to follow these rules. If they want these rules followed then they need to raise the fines. These guys are making millions. Their fine should be 50% their salary minimum
The funny thing is they let them keep piecing in, wear jewellery like necklaces which most other sports consider to be dangerous but they’re more bother about purely cosmetic stuff because of financial reasons and branding.
All these rules are in the contract players sign. They are paid millions. Every single one of these rules, makes perfect sense. Just because you get away with it for a while, doesn’t make it acceptable. Just because your accessory sends a nice message, doesn’t mean it’s not against the rules. The fact there are so many people breaking these rules, intentionally, and for their own momentary gain, tells you exactly why the rules exist. Imagine how out of control this would get if the NFL just allowed players to do what they want? With all these rules and fines, there are athletes constantly trying to get away with breaking them. It would be out of control so fast and the game would quickly turn into players trying to “one-up” each other, or prioritizing “There brand,” whenever possible.
Commenters don't realize that not allowing other brands adorn their players increases the advertising value of the NFL which in tern translates to higher salaries for the players. Allowing brands to be advertised "for free" by a player indirectly stifles the value of the league in the eyes of potential advertisers.
