I’ve known Jimmy since he was in 6th grade. He comes from a pretty well off family. His older brothers Casey and Rick were pretty good college QB’s as well at Tennessee. Jimmy played at Notre Dame.

[Wya.jyy]

I haven’t heard anything about a jimmy clausen till this shorts popped up

Cam Newton and Brooks Foster a WR from UNC back in the day was the reason i worn #1 when i played football back in high school🫡!

Don't know if it was the case at the time, but a player has to buy all existing stock of their jersey from the NFL in order to change numbers.
For popular players, the cost can easily exceed 1 million dollars.

To be fair a year before they drafted cam they drafted jimmy to be the guy and they never gave him his full chance prolly made him bitter

[SergioLopez-tony]

So basically Jimmy trying to finesse a finesser

[jmajjic]

It’s wild how a punter or a backup qb can hold up a new promising player from getting a number. Jayden Daniels had to pay a punter for 5 and then immediately became a top 15 qb 😂

[Onyntuesdays-bd]

Never knew who jimmy was guess cam kept his word

[iPartyHardcore]

I think that explains the Superman celebration Cam would do. He was really showing he could do it wearing any number.

[jl]

Jimmy was playing Cam bam he's the backup

[montrelliswilliams]

I remember when this shii happened and I really never heard of him again I think he was drafted the year before cam

[HoodieBugz]

They pro athletes that's a drop in a bucket to them .

[michaelosborne]

These kind of deals happen all the time in the league lol

[baller]

Both were young QB's on rookie contracts trying to make a name (and number) for themselves, so it kindof makes sense. One of them was the #1 pick, so he knew he would get paid more

[Summercampsland]

It’s not that unreasonable for a bunch of multi millionaire nfl players to

[dch]

Lamelo wore number 2 in his rookie year and Monk dried to sell him the number 1 jersey. Seems like a think in Carolina

[gymkingz]

Jimmy knew his time was limited so he needed to secure a quick bag. Can’t be mad that he tried

[yung_batman-]

“We all know cam is one of the best players in NFL history” HELL YA

“To use number 1” Oh well sure

[gabez]

I mean I remember jimmy clausens Hail Mary but nah fr 😭 he fumbled real bad

[ValSempai]

reminds me of shaq getting that dude traded off the magic because he wanted shaq to pay for his jersey number
