Do NFL players have to wear cup protection?

Answer 1

Yes we do wear cups

Answer 2

The outerwear for the NFL includes pants, socks, cleats, helmet and mask and the mouth guard. Protective under uniform gear includes back and rib plates, shoulder pads, neck rolls, knee and elbow pads. The athletic supporter or cup is one of the most important parts of the uniform.

Answer 3

No, football players no longer wear cups because the are faster and more comfortable without them. Also cups mainly protect you from injuries caused by high-velocity impacts such as baseballs and hockey pucks.

Answer 4

jockstraps

A lot of high school football players wear a cup because they are concerned about getting hit in their sensitive area. I do not think that most professional football players wear a cup, however; I think that they just wear a regular jockstrap without a cup. If you are a teenager and are concerned about getting hit in your sensitive area when you play football, then you should wear a cup so you feel secure.

Answer 5

They certainly do.

Answer 6

Yes.
