Obvious player safety issue. Tougher fabric will lead to more... um... Rashes.

I would bet it is much harder to grab that jersey than it is to grab a traditional one that fits looser. I could see a lot of Nike teams raising an issue about it, not necessarily for the inability to hold, but it also would make you harder to tackle.

Compare the elastic fabric above to this for example:

This could be detrimental to our own OL, how will they practice holding?
