Team Captain Patch (1 Viewer)

Obviously, the team captain patches are new this year.

But I've noticed patches with varying numbers of gold stars. Some will have the first star gold, and the other three are not. I've seen others where the first and second are gold, and the rest are not. I believe I saw some in the presason with all four stars being gold. What do the stars mean?

Wonderlic test score results?
 
C patches were new last year, FWIW.
This is from the NFL site:Teams appointing season-long captains -- 75 have been reappointed for 2008 -- qualify for up to six captains to wear the letter "C" on the upper right chest of their jerseys. Gold stars under the "C" indicate the number of seasons a player has been a captain for his present team.

The captains' initiative originated with the NFL Player Advisory Council that was established in 2007 by NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell in conjunction with the NFL Players Association. The idea also has been strongly endorsed by NFL head coaches.

"Our captains are a great representation of the veteran leadership of our team," says Cincinnati Bengals head coach Marvin Lewis. "The captains represent a diversity of positions, and we will be looking to these players for their professionalism in giving direction to the younger segment of our roster."
