Banned facemasks in the NFL.

NFL players-and really the rest of society if we are being honest-seem to now be all about their appearances.
And for the men on the gridiron, one critical aspect of that look is the facemask protruding from their team helmet.
Over the years, we have seen players try many an iteration of facemasks, either for aesthetic purposes, because the players believed that the design gave them some sort of competitive advantage, or as added protection from a specific injury.
And some of these ended up being so crazy that the NFL ultimately banned them.
Without further ado, let’s take a look at some of the craziest facemasks we’ve ever seen being worn by NFL players.

LTs Vader Facemask was awesome

[@ShahPhilLeotardo]

Back in the 80’s Denver Broncos RB Steve Sewell wore a strange looking face mask during the 1987 strike season. As for Bubba Paris the mask he wore was a quite common model and had a lot of variations to suit player positions that a lot of players wore in throughout the league.

[@KingDizzleLTDinc.]

Aye those single bar helmets worn in the 70s was absolutely insanity..like wtf and Darnell Docket mask was on some Bane type deal foreal..

[@joshpavlik3343]

The Spider-Man on looked pretty awesome and I forget what the exact reason was for banning the tuck style masks anyways

[@12thMandalorian]

Wild face mask and should make a comeback, imagine an Iron Man edition

[@Eddieavina123]

Love your video TPS

[@goldenageofdinosaurs7192]

Man, I miss those old Tampa Bay Unis & logo. I’ll never understand why they changed😞

[@matthewalexanderlemma8000]

That funky Peyton Manning-Kurt Warner facemask was only ever used during the 2001 NFL season and they both didn’t begin the season with that type of facemask. If I remember correctly, one of them broke their jaw, which led to their crazy facemask change.

[@michaelgandy4684]

Kurt Warner did break his jaw

[@matthewalexanderlemma8000]

@@michaelgandy4684, okay, he was the one. I don’t remember what Peyton Manning’s story is.

[@6400az]

@@matthewalexanderlemma8000 Pretty sure one of them was hit in the throat.

[@L_Train]

Terrel Suggs needed extra face mask bars to protect his teeth since he had no top lip.

[@kcthesledgestoryteller]

Howie Long also wore the bull-ring face mask. And I have to laugh at hearing Joe Theisman speak of “Grandfathering in a single bar. I believe he was the last QB in the NFL to wear one.

[@laserxman779sports]

Are we all forgetting ray Lewis face mask that was fire

[@griffinroblox73]

yeahh

[@connorchappell1952]

The 49ers guy at 7:23 looks weird bc I’m pretty sure it was 2 masks stacked on top of one another

[@dannymikulas6226]

Ricky Jackson's facemask when he was with the saints

[@pneumonoultramicroscopicsiIico]

Justin Tuck and Ray Lewis’s face masks were the best, I wish the nfl would still allowed them

[@MikeHenderson-tq5oj]

Alvin Wyatt of Buffalo and Houston (in the early 70s) had a one of a kind facemask back in the day.

[@21sled]

The Spider-Man one was the most unique

[@whaduzitmatr]

I saw a couple cameos by YA Tittle's helmet with the grab bar bolted to the side

[@todx15]

these were awesome

[@leemcdonald1342]

I would love to see the facemasks in Madden, NFL 2k, or whatever game that comes out. (Just for the lols.)

[@WashedQGP]

some are in MUT

[@Tsmondz]

Feels like TPS is being overcritical to some rather unique and even downright awesome designs in this video

[@NAT-turners-Revenge]

Always

[@whaduzitmatr]

I created a replica of Scott Player's Cardinals helmet with the one bar facemask, mine however is bolted down so it does not swivel

[@rockydabomb69420]

These guys are so down bad for video ideas at this point

[@InterestinglyHandsome]

Please never talk again, you woke up and wanted to speak wrong

[@rockydabomb69420]

​@@InterestinglyHandsome your a very cool guy

[@keith2527]

And people under the comment section be giving them the best video ideas, but they just wanna do things their own way and that’s why they get low ass views now

[@joshrodas5437]

@@keith2527so why tf are you watching then bozo.

[@Ducky11968]

3rd time asking can you do a video of 10 nfl players who have one last chance in 2023 pls

[@Ironwolf43]

Darnell dockett and Justin Tucker had the best

[@coolcaleb3887]

csonka broke his nose so many times the coaches added the bull ring. try doing some research.

[@lawrencegenyard4250]

Top ten Super Bowl winning teams like a playoff bracket what superbowl team would win

[@DavidBangura-xo5yw]

Can you guys do top ten defenses that could become the legion of boom 2.0 in the next few years?

[@angelmiron1991]

Complaining about Tampa Bay orange uniform yet the majority of the teams main colors are Red 😮‍💨

[@noahthaxton3011]

Video suggestion every teams weakest link

[@LoganWard4621]

protect the old schoz lol the helmet it self looks like it got ran over by a Mack truck lol

[@DirtyKoolAid]

Darnell Dockett had the coolest mask imo

[@exoticsoysauce9239]

All these drippy

[@mattkellander8407]

Do a video redoing every #1 overall pick since 2000?

[@SSCPRedits]

Hi tps

[@SSCPRedits]

Can u respond I am a big fan

[@12thMandalorian]

The perfect example of the No Fun League 😂

[@aronburgemeier8408]

You guys already done this before years ago tho

[@peelslowly28]

We need some nerds showing physical proof to the NFL that unique face masks won't change the result of hits and injury like they claim they do.

[@timothykessler2732]

If you had one of those what are you doing with it?

[@michaelgandy4684]

Justin Tuck was probably the best

[@rafcobra]

The word you're looking for is exacerbated, not exasperated.

[@giantsnation1.0]

Running out of ideas I see

[@brianvanasse7627]

They really get most of there video ideas from the people in the comments so they must’ve not seen a video that they liked

[@davebradley4498]

Always wondered why the NFL hasn't created a facemask, similar to a racing helmet. Make it breathable, face masks penalty gone

[@EmptyHand49]

They would most likely crack or break

[@Gridiron89]

Out of all the video ideas, you choose this?

[@zackinwald9581]

Justin tuck is the mask 🐐

[@Donlightyear]

Best looking the giants Suggs lt. ugliest ones the bull ring

[@adamkrawchick7063]

bro are you that out of ideas

Schutt saved the integrity of the game when they developed the F7 IMO.

[@L_Train]

Literally huh? How so?

[@L_Train]

@@acatem3074 I meant that you don't need the word "literally" there. People overuse it.

[@ryaneugenelawrencewalls1987]

Where's Mike Webster of the Steelers?

[@ryaneugenelawrencewalls1987]

LaDainian Tomlinson he was awesome especially that Vader facemask is was and still excellent of his hall of fame career
