From another discussion board, those officials were not present for the pre-season meetings where hats were distributed. All of them were given ADJUSTABLE hats (I presume because the NFL wanted the logo on the hat). Some of the replacement officials apparently wore their hats from college or other venues.
Don't shoot the messanger please. I don't have a strong opinion one way or ther other.
