If you purchased a Deebo Samuel jersey, the San Francisco 49ers wide receiver might be preparing to make it outdated. Samuel suggested on Instagram that he is pondering a number change. Today, the NFL passed a proposal to loosen the restrictions on allowed numbers based on position. It sounds like Samuel is excited about the news.

Samuel wore No. 1 during his collegiate career at South Carolina and shared with fans that a jersey number change might be coming. He followed up the announcement with several photos of himself with the Gamecocks, asking fans, "How y'all feel about this?"

Fullback Kyle Juszczyk — likely jokingly — also gave the impression that he might at least consider a change.

We'll probably see several upcoming jersey number changes thanks to the rule change.
