I seem to recall hearing last year in midseason he started wearing a different number on his jersey. I'm not sure if that was an attempt to make the officials think there was a different player (less prone to committing a penalty) at that position, or as some kind of tribute to another player.

it was a way to show he was leaving his old self of causing personal fouls and playing too rough behind.
he's now left with being 6'10" and standing out like a sore thumb for every minor penalty he does. he isn't able to get away with the same penalties a normal size lineman is able to.
