The NFL decided at the annual owners meetings Tuesday that players will now be allowed to wear the No. 0 and one wide receiver has already announced he’ll be making the change.
New Jaguars wideout Calvin Ridley almost immediately took to Twitter after the new rule regarding jersey numbers became official and said, “Excited to be the first Jaguars player to wear zero—shout out to Jags equipment!”
Ridley played the first four seasons of his career with the Falcons before he was hit with a one-year suspension in 2022 for gambling. He was since traded to Jacksonville and has been reinstated.
