I don't have a clue unfortunately. It appeared to me that it was simply not their intention to use those long loose sleeves on the current QBs. That's just my opinion though...

I was really surprised that the loose sleeves weren't used on current QBs. To me, that would be the biggest reason to put those sleeves in the game -- for use on the legends would be a close second.

It looked ok...problem was the stripes were still up around the shoulder (at least in that build) so it didn't look right. In any event, seems like a bit of a missed opportunity to make the QBs look even more authentic.

So the game allowed you to edit current players? I think they'll have the sleeves available, that barry sanders pic had him wearing loose sleeves on the current det uni. I think it might have been a late addition to the game. Or maybe that's just wishful thinking.

Loose sleeves are in the game, and yes, you can put them on players for use in your play now games. My points are (1) the stripes were way too high on the Cowboys loose sleeves (looked like a white tee even lol) and (2) I don't expect the default rosters will ship with current QBs using the loose sleeves. We'll see though.

Man, that still don't look right. It's like Montana in a Chiefs uniform, or Jordan in a Wizards uniform.

Thanks for all the info.

I'm puzzled on this decision if this is indeed how the game ships. Seams like a waste of time and feature if they don't get those sleeves right. Can't take too long to make sure this is done correctly, let's hope it makes it in the game the way it should be.

Fixed. Peyton gets blasted plenty.
