Saints jersey number changes

Kwon was number 5. I never had trouble knowing he was #5. Alontae is #1. No problem there either.


Tom plays a new team every week. That's not the same as a Saints fan watching the same team for TC and the whole season.

For the millionth time, this isn’t about our time.

Here’s a concept maybe you’re not familiar with since you seem to be so zoned in on the Saints argument - some of us, many of us, watch the whole league and not just our own favorite team to root for.

Some of us even have extensive knowledge of most of the league, but not 100%, so little things like what Brady talked about, helps when watching NFL games.

I get it, some fans watch other games or watch Saints opponents and simply look at the Jersey of the player as the being the bad guys on the other team, and nothing more than nameless/faceless individuals, but for those of us that study/watch the games closely, or for those that have played/coached the game, Jersey number identity was a helpful tool at the NFL level.

Again, the rules were in place for a reason and served a very valid purpose for decades. Just because the rules are gone now does not invalidate that purpose.
