Lets start from the head down: 1. Helmet 2. Mouthpiece 3. Neck roll (optional) 4. Shoulder pads 5. Hip pads 6. Tail bone pad 7. Thigh pads 8. Knee pads note: additional pads such as rib pads that protect the torso can be worn. normally these are not worn as they tend to limit mobility. additional pads will be placed to protect injured areas if need be. knee braces, wrist braces, will be worn as well. also the bulk and size of the pads vary according to position, for example a wide receiver's shoulder pads are more flexible and smaller to allow greater mobility. A lineman's shoulder pads are bulkier and more ridgid to provide more protection due to the heavy contact they encounter every play.
