Prince Amu-Who? Amukamara's name misspelled on Bears jersey
Some names are tougher to spell than others. That’s not news.
But Chicago Bears cornerback Prince Amukamara seems to get his misspelled more than most.
The Bears are hosting the Detroit Lions on Sunday, and as Amukamara pulled on his jersey for the 22nd time as part of the Chicago roster, he probably noticed something wasn’t right: the name on the back was “AMUKMARA.”
(The second of what’s supposed to be four As is missing.)
Making matters worse, this wasn’t the first time his own team’s equipment staff erred. In 2016, when he was a member of the Jacksonville Jaguars (and funny enough, playing the Bears), it was spelled “AMUAKMARA,” so all of the proper letters are there, just not in the correct order.
