Why Changing an NFL Jersey Costs $1.5M ๐ฒ๐Added:
Changing a single digit on an NFL jersey can run you the price of a mansion, enough to make most players stick with their old number for life. In the NFL, jersey numbers are tied to positions, and players can't switch numbers mid-season. Here's the kicker. If a player wants to change his number after jerseys have already been mass-produced, he has to buy out all the leftover stock from Nike and official NFL stores.
Dalvin Cook tried to switch from 33 to 4 back when he was with the Vikings. He backed out because it would have cost him 1.5 million dollars.
