Jersey swapping has become a pretty common occurrence in the NFL these days.

After games, former teammates and friends meet up, share a few words, maybe take a picture and trade jerseys before heading into the locker room. It’s almost a postgame tradition now.

Former Ohio State teammates Joey Bosa and Michael Thomas took part in that newly introduced tradition following the Chargers-Saints preseason matchup on Sunday night. They snapped a picture to capture the moment:

Bosa and Thomas were members of Ohio State’s national championship team in 2014 and both were selected in the 2016 NFL Draft. They each had sensational rookie seasons last year.

Bosa was named the Defensive Rookie of the Year while Thomas had over 1,100 receiving yards. Both were named to the All-Rookie Team by the Pro Football Writers Association.
