1.11 (a ) (1) All players on a team shall wear numbered uniforms identical in color, trim and style. The wearing of hats or visors is optional for each player while on defense.

That's it. You'd have to decide that the bandana was jewelry.

1.11 (j) Players must not wear jewelry such as, but not limited to, rings, watches, earrings, bracelets, necklaces, nor any hard cosmetic/decorative items. This applies regardless of the composition of such jewelry, hard cosmetic item or hard decorative item. EXCEPTION: Jewelry that alerts medical personnel to a specific condition is permissible.

Never seen a hard bandana.

The rules instruction manual makes a referfece to the joke (their word) about anything you weren't born with.
