As many have said...a blood change absolves the team from being penalized for players wearing new jerseys. Even if the change is a ripple effect. If they take one from a sub, the rule and reasoning given behind the rules also permit that sub to take a new jersey when one becomes available (perhaps from the lockerroom or team bus).
Remember, we are making them take the shirt off as a result of the blood. The penalties regarding book/number changes are all there to ensure the team fills out the book correctly...nothing else.
