- Knee pads must be covered by pants, which must completely cover the knees
- If an official discovers illegals equipment or if a player is not wearing mandatory equipment, the player must leave the game for at least one down and is not allowed to return until the equipment is made legal. The player may return without missing a down if the team takes a charged timeout and the equipment is made legal.
