Hester started out at defensive back.He could get permission from the NFL to do it, not like it doesn't happen. Hester wores 23 and he's no defensive back or halfback, well... Anymore.
I remember Reggie Bush was denied his number 5 some years back, and he appealed a few times too I think and he still didn't get it. Wonder if times are changing now.I don't buy it, but you never know. He could have been designated PR/KR and lobbied the Commissioner for the number. But if he's granted that number then it opens the flood gates for tons of other players trying the same stunt, so I doubt it. We all know Goodell has more important things to do than answer number requests.
He's been classified as a WR since his second season and hasn't played on the defense side of the ball outside of isolated occasions like hail marys and such in quite some time, but the 23 remained.Hester started out at defensive back.
