Sports Trivia: NFL Jersey Number Edition

As week one of the NFL preseason has begun let us reflect on the greatest sport in the world. Where cheese heads finally have a say in the world and men are not afraid to wear other men’s names on their backs. The NFL is officially back in all its glory, like the long-awaited Jesse and the Rippers reunion tour. This week I have added a scoring grid so that you may keep track of how fantastical you are at NFL trivia or how poorly misinformed you really are. Each week I try to bring it harder than a hit by Jadaveon Clowney. But for you Screeches of the world, I will certainly throw a few softies your way to keep you in the game and help the veterans pad their score.

Each question is worth one point. The answers are below the video. Good luck and Godspeed people. Each answer this week will be on the topic of NFL Jersey Number Edition. I will provide you with a player and you give me their number or vice versa.

Enjoy this delicious hit by Jadeveon Clowney. Every time I see this hit I wonder what was worse. How the hit felt for the running back or the ass chewing received by the player that forgot to block the giant black man coming up the middle?
