OW offensive weapon designation (1 Viewer)

[Kwai Chang Caine]

Anyone else catch this during Jags/Eagles? Robinson for the Jags play QB, RB and WR so hey gave him a new designation--OW.

Wonder if this will be a headache for commissioners?

It won't be a headache because the NFL will only allow you to list a player at one position. You can play as many different positions as you want, but you will officially be listed at only one position (with your uniform # corresponding to that position).

They can get as cute as they want with it, they have to list him at one position and it will be RB.

The 'OW' is BS just for pre-season. He'll be listed as RB when the season starts. No headache.

RB can't wear 16, right? So he would have to be WR or QB?
