Let's take it one step further...has anybody ever seen ANY NFL player use a full first and last name NOB? In all my years of watching/researching football I have never seen it - well except the XFL's "He Hate Me." Usually if there are multiple players on the roster with the same last name the go with first initials. I'd be interested to hear any variations/deviations from that.

Jack Youngblood (Rams) had both first and last name on his jersey's for some time

Good call ironmanfan! Now that I think about it his brother as well, Joel Youngblood. In those cases the first name was above the last I believe.

I think Ricky Williams in his rookie year had the full name.
The NFL rule is/was that if two players have the same last name, they both have to have the first initial on their. If multiple players have the same last name and the first initial, then the first two letters of the first name have to be on there. If the first two letters of the first name are the same, both have to have the full first and last name.

I think you mean Jim Youngblood as Joel was the baseball player

According to the Raiders alltime roster, Howie Long is the only regular season player with the last name Long.
That said, it doesn't mean that there couldn't have been another H. Long in preseason
