Dolphins’ Jevon Holland appears to shut down number change talk

On Tuesday, the NFL announced new rule/bylaw changes for the 2023 season, which included giving players the option to wear No. 0 going forward. This comes just two years after the league loosened up their number requirements to allow positions to have more choices than before.

After the news, Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Calvin Ridley became the first player to announce his change to No. 0, leading many to question who it will be the dons the number first for the Miami Dolphins.

Dolphins safety Jevon Holland nearly immediately showed his support for the rule change, so many assumed it would be him.

However, early Wednesday morning, Holland appeared to shut down the rumors.

The former Oregon Duck is affectionately nicknamed “The Snowman” for wearing the No. 8, so changing would definitely affect things for him.

For now, everyone will have to wait to see who will be the first to rock No. 0 in aqua and orange.
