Juju Smith-Schuster’s real name is John Sherman Smith-Scuster.

Tank Bigsby’s real name is Cartavious Bigsby.

Dak Prescott’s real name is Rayne Dakota Prescott. 

The NBA is doing it with Ja Morant. His real name is Temetrious Jamel Morant.

Ok, since no one else explained your error I will. Player LAST names go on the jersey and are required to be the player's legal name minus any professional titles like M.D. or Esq.. All of your examples are FIRST names which the League (and pretty much everyone else in the world) doesn't have any issue with a person using, except in specific cases like government, Court, and healthcare. The original XFL permitted players to put whatever they wanted on their jerseys.and it didn't have to even be a name. Rod Smart did not go by Rod He Hate Me, it was a message, and the NFL still doesn't allow something like that no matter how many Bill, Chip, Andy and Treys play the game.
