Thanks TxMike

Just found 1-4-2-e

"Numbers shall not be changed during the game to deceive opponents"

I guess the issue now becomes whether wearing one number on the D-Line and a different number on the O-Line is designed "to decieve opponents"

You have hit on the easy answer, but the reality is this D-lineman has been #99 for most of his career, and only plays a couple of downs on offense. The bottom line is that he doesn't want to be 69 on the D-line.

The team is Frisco Wakeland.
