Jaylon Smith to wear 9

[Runwildboys]

Well that’s the only way any Jaylon Smith merchandise would sell. Merchants must be stoked

He was gonna give them all to underprivileged children in third world countries, but nobody wanted them.

Sarcasm

High 6 figures to but out all the unused merchandise which had to be a lot!!

He’s a shameless self-promoter and seemingly a narcissist. I guarantee he frequents forums and social media to look himself up.

Lol hope he comes here.

Hey Jaylon. Hope you see this. You are a fraud.

Lol hope he comes here.

Hey Jaylon. Hope you see this. You are a fraud.

But we're all pulling for you!

I’m just here for the comments.

Yawn… Slow news day I guess

Wow!! He looks better then Romo ever did with the number 9 jersey.

First, I'm surprised that there's a half million dollars in Jaylon Jerseys sitting out there in the first place? Who the Hades ordered that many Jaylon Jerseys in the first place? I love to see the sales numbers on him. I imagine there are crates full of them that have been sitting in a warehouse for a long time.

Yesterday, we find out that Aaron Rodgers passed up half and million by not working out for a few days in the offseason. Today, we learn that this guy drops half a mill to buy up jerseys just to wear another number. It gets harder and harder to root for today's athletes.

Jaylon Smith is making a jersey switch, moving from No. 54 to No. 9, but it will come at a cost. According to multiple sources, Smith will pay close to mid-six figures to buy out the current inventory of No. 54 jerseys and t-shirts, which follows NFL rules, to make the move. Had he said he would change his number in 2022, it would not cost him any money. Sources said Smith reached out to Tony Romp, who wore the number from 2003-16.

What a complete moron. Whether or not he cleared it with Tony Romp.

Smart move by Jerry. Make Jaylon but all his jerseys they couldn't sell right before releasing him.

LET'S GO!!! Let's bring some respectability to the #9......

No matter what the doubters feel...its a new beginning of Jaylon...not because of his number change but new DC and new defense.......

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

The NFL making you buy your jerseys is the dumbest thing I've seen this offseason.

 

[ChronicCowboy]

He’s quickly approaching TO and Jay Ratliff status.

 

[zrinkill]

I knew when I saw this on the sports news that people would use this to pile on him.

Jaylon will be here another three years.

Man Jaylon you don't owe him nothing....I Get he's doing it because of these Romo apologists crying about but its not even that serious. You #9 now. Let's get this season starting.......

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Is this based on what went down today or just a generic statement?

Seems like it’s based on what’s going on this off-season so far. The rookie minicamp QB’s were bad and it looks like so far in OTA’s the non-Dak QB play has been bad. Think Watkins is just inferring that this looks like it needs some outside attention.
