Can't wait to see him play, personal preference, I hope he wears all those wristbands on his arm like he did in Texas!! Lol
He was interviewed by a local Austin TV station and was asked if he was gonna continue wearing all those wristbands and he replied that he was gonna hang it up because of NFL strict rules. But i don't find any rules against that, so maybe he will continue after all. I hope he does.

I have a feeling this guy is gonna get much more than that. All players outside of first round qualify for a bonus based on snaps, starts and production. He’s gonna do well. Biadasz, MCGovern, Diggs all made more than their contract waz. Diggs is making 3 million over his contract this year

Certain rules indirectly refer to wearing wristbands (link):

SECTION 4 EQUIPMENT, UNIFORMS, PLAYER APPEARANCE
ARTICLE 1. GENERAL POLICY.
Throughout the game-day period while in view of the stadium and television audience, including during team pregame warm-ups, all players must dress in a professional manner under the uniform standards. The helmet and mandatory padding referenced in Article 3 below are intended to provide reasonable protection to a player while reasonably avoiding risk of injury to other players. The development of Playing Rules should be governed by this Article. Players generally must present an appearance that is appropriate to representing their individual clubs and the National Football League. The term uniform, as used in this policy, applies to every piece of equipment worn by a player, including helmet, shoulder pads, thigh pads, knee pads, and any other item of protective gear, and to every visible item of apparel, including but not limited to pants, jerseys, wristbands, gloves, game socks and/or leg coverings, shoes, visible undergarments, and accessories such as headwear worn under helmets and hand towels. All visible items worn on game day by players must be issued by the club or the League, or, if from outside sources, must have approval in advance by the League office.

ARTICLE 6. OPTIONAL EQUIPMENT. Among the types of optional equipment that are permitted to be worn by players are the following:
Item 4. Wristbands. Wristbands, provided they are white, black, or an official uniform color of the applicable team only.

My guess is Overshown does not want the league hassling him over keeping a non-specified 'professional appearance' they might say is wearing certain color wristbands on his wrists only.
