This may have been discussed already but I missed it. In 1-4-2 and 1-4-3 the rule uses the word "recommended" for the numbering of players. In rule 7-2-5, the word "requirements" is used when discussing player numbers. In 7-2-5 it only requires the lineman to be wearing specified numbers. Is it ok for a player in the backfield, or end of the line to be wearing a number 50-79? Where does the idea that these players have to report to the WH that they are eligible runners/receivers come from? Any thoughts would be appreciated.
