There was a fairly decent showing of 49ers fans at the team’s Week 2 loss to the Carolina Panthers, and we got a good jersey out of it. Someone decided to go with a customized No. 99, and they came up with this for the nameplate:

I feel like this would have been a little bit better at the start of last year’s season, but still, solid work by the fan. The team is slowly developing more personalities as part of this rebuilding process, but this is certainly one way to go. I’m reaching a point where I probably will not be buying any more jerseys, but if I were, this is certainly a clever option. Well done, random fan.
