Re: NFL Hard Knocks 2013 - Recycling of Cincinnati Bengals game jerseys.
NFL teams are not in business to cater to the collector. The equipment managers main job is to have jerseys ready for the players. Free agents are given whatever number jersey is available that fits their position. The team is not going to have a jersey made for someone who may be with the team a week or two and who may never see the field. Yes, I wouldn't buy an NFL jersey without a nameplate unless I was damn near sure who wore it. At the same time I wouldn't care who the manufacturer is. The main thing is it fits my niche in collecting whether it is Nike, Reebok, Wilson or whatever else I may find.
