At next week's NFL owners meeting, some owners are pushing for a rule change that would prevent Pittsburgh Steelers safety Troy Polamalu and other players with dreadlocks or long hair from covering the names on the backs of their jerseys. The rule is pretty simple... any hair that covers that area has to be addressed.
It doesn't mean players have to cut their hair, they might have to keep it under their helmet.
Hair is considered part of the uniform, so normally there is no penalty for grabbing the hair and tackling a player.
Historically, the NFL has been strict in enforcing uniform violations. A sock that is out of place or a shirt that isn't tucked in could result in substantial fines. Now, if this proposal is passed, long-haired players will have to decide whether to cut the hair or tuck it inside the helmet.
