Three Players, One Jersey -Pro Bowl & No. 21

[rypper11]

IMO Darrent Williams' death was brushed away too quickly. He was murdered too, yet the NFL wanted to distance themselves because they felt he put himself in a bad situation. However, he wasn't doing anything that the majority of guys his age don't do. Except, instead of drinking and driving he was in a rental w/ teammates. I think Sean's death was felt more possibly because he was already a star and it was during the season. But, they should have been able to pay tribute.
My question is, why does the NFL care what number people wear in the Pro Bowl? Theoretically, 20 ProBowlers could have the number 55, but that's okay because it's their normal number. For Pro Bowl purposes only, why not let players wear any number any year? Since Favre isn't playing because of injury, maybe Hasslebeck or Garcia would like to wear #4 as a tribute to him. I'm not saying they should, just that they should have the right to switch numbers for the Pro Bowl.
