    A wr with only 1 arm question?
    Lets say by some luck , some guy makes it to the nfl as a wr with only one arm. He catches a touchdown, but just like calvin johnson, the ball comes out after he catches it goes down and releases the ball.

    Are you saying the nfl would discriminate against him and say all his completions on the ground,are no good because he has to release the ball with the same hand???

    Didn't know the nfl discriminated

    His Father should encourage him to become a Field Goal kicker instead... he would be discriminated against much less.

                  There isn't a rule against flying either, what if a guy with wings makes it to the NFL?

                                Rule 514-a14 says all three armed players must possess ball with all three hands before declared completion. So one armed players just need one.

                                  You'd think maybe a one-armed AL pitcher could get away with , not having to bat.....but the dude was an outfielder.

                                  Swinging the stick with one arm.
