2013 NFL Uniform Thread - Nike Making Changes

Another issue with expanding to international countries with NFL teams...specifically the Jaguars...last week when they played in London, they kept the "Jags" patch on their jerseys. Certain terms we use mean other things in other countries.

In England, "jags" is an offensive term to insult someone, also used as "jag-off". It's similar to their word "wanker" in meaning and it usually used in place of the American word "idiot".

Nice move, NFL.
