The deal between the NFL and Epic was probably a lucrative one, but it's not exactly the best look. You can find numerous examples on social media of people creating representations of controversial NFL figures like Michael Vick with a dog on his back and Aaron Hernandez pointing a gun. The jersey skins rotating out of the in-game store is nothing out of the ordinary for Fortnite, as the game's numerous cosmetic items cycle out eventually. In the case of the NFL jersey skins, they stayed in the store longer than many other Fortnite items.
This story has been updated to clarify the availability situation surrounding the NFL jersey skins.
