Why did I not know that OLine can wear a number in the 50's?

I think they're designated to wear 50-79, correct? But you're right you don't see too many OL wearing numbers in the 50s.

Eugene Amano for the Titans wears 54, FWIW.

The Packers designate captains for each game. They change week to week.
During the playoffs, they team votes on the captains and they receive the patches for the game.

Most NFL Careers are not too long, and by the time some guys become captiains it is 2-3 years down the road. However, I think it will be interesting when some well liked 27 year old punter or longsnapper becomes captain and sticks with the team for 10 years+

But the current aptch, begs the question, what happens to the patches next year for 6-year captains? I don't like the captains patches at all and if they had to do it, have a better game plan and add another row of 4 stars, to it to begin with. 8-years I think would cover around 70-85%% of all players deemed captain's careers, or at least careers with 1 team.
