This makes more sense now I think they were just letting the D know that 590 pounds of humanity is about seal the edge.
Seal the edge with knee braces? :lol: :lol:

Just kidding. . .
No need to kid, it's a common curiosity by most fans.
Bill Parcells used to REQUIRE all his Olinemen wear braces to prevent knee injuries. Unsure how soundly that "science" is nowadays

There are definitely some programs that require linemen to wear them. I remember when they were first coming into use in the mid to late 80's. I was about a million years younger.
