There’s a workaround of sorts for new numbers.
If you have two players with the same numbers, you can edit anything on the one who’s number you don’t want to change, and the other one’s will automatically change.
I had an incoming elite dev QB, the CPU gave him #19. My kicker is also #19. Went in and changed my kicker’s cleats, and my QB’s number changed to #1. Did it with a couple other players as well.
Tell’s me that EA doesn’t have it coded it correctly for two players to have the same number. They only had 10 years to get the most basic of college traditions correct, our fault for expecting more.
It’s not ideal and it’s absolutely asinine that it even has to come down to that, but I figured I’d share. Hopefully it helps someone.
