TD's Visor

[t96]

 

What would the repercussions be if he wore it during the game? Would he be allowed to play with it and then get fined? Or would he not even be allowed on the field with it during the game? If it's just a fine, he NEEDS to play with it for this game and take the fine. Would be so badass and would set the tone from the start of the game.

That is bitchin

I don't see why he wouldn't be allowed to wear it.  It is equipment after all.

Tinted visors are against the rules...

He does play with it on game days. Have never heard about any fines. But yea, that is bad.

He's never played with it. He wears it pregame but not allowed to during game and has never tested the rule.

They're legal if for 'medical reasons', whatever those may be. Uncommon, but they can be worn during a game.

Peppers is the first one that comes to mind.

Cause the ladies couldn't see how perty Cam is.

If a player goes down and unconscious, with a tinted visor is much harder to see their eyes which is a tell tale first response of an issue.

Not banned, but must have a medical reason to wear during a game, I'm guessing something along the lines of being sensitive to light or other vision issues.

 I for one don't leave my house without a pair of sunglasses on sunny days, because squinting your eyes for 4+ hours is uncomfortable as hell, and it will increase the amount of crows feet wrinkles I end up with, and I don't want to ruin my beautiful face and flawless complexion.

Because it is seen as unfair to hide your eyes from your opponents.

Well, your question just asked "why are tinted visors banned? ” not " why are they banned without an approved medical reason?" So I did answer the question that I didn't have to read your mind to know you were asking lol.

And who knows? The NFL uniform rules are retarded. Why can't a team where an alt uniform more than 2 times a year? Why can't they wear different helmets?

The usual fallback excuse is "bup bup bup PLAYER SAFETY!", but it never makes sense. Like the helmet rule, you can't tell me a brand new, properly fitted helmet is less safe than one that's been through weeks of repeated beatings, but according the the NFL that's why they have to wear the same helmet all season.
