NFL teams overjoyed that Brett Hundley wears his hat ‘the right way’

James Dator
James Dator has been covering a wide range of sports for SB Nation for over a decade, with a special focus on the NFL.

Let the NFL pearl-clutching continue over which way football players choose to wear their hats. After all, a forward hat is the biggest marker for success in the NFL -- anyone with half a brain knows that. Look, it’s one thing to have some weird prejudice against backwards hats, but another entirely to tell a college coach “how nice it is” to see them dressed like this.

After the hubbub over Colin Kaepernick, we shouldn’t really be surprised. Let’s do a quick rundown of hat styles in the NFL this week:

NICK FOLES, FORWARD HAT, TRADED TO RAMS
SAM BRADFORD, FORWARD HAT, TRADED TO EAGLES
RUSSELL WILSON, BACKWARDS CAP, NOT TRADED, STILL AMAZING, ON A CHRISTIAN RETREAT
