Why are the professional football players wearing “GU” on their jerseys?
The GU insignia on the professional football players’ jerseys is in memory of Gene Upshaw, a former player and Hall of Fame member. During the quarter century he served as head of the players union, he helped get NFL players free agency status, which has been highly profitable. There is also a small number, 63, underneath the GU – he was 63 when he died earlier this summer from pancreatic cancer.
