one is that players have 2 have certain numbers like quarter backs need 2 have a number between 1 and 19 and running backs need a number between 20 and 49 but if a player changes his position then he can keep his number he had from that position for example devin Hester when he was drafted he was a cornerback and he had the number 23 he changed his position to wide receiver and he kept the number 23 even though wide receivers arent supposed 2 have that number.

this rule was made in 1973
