Yes, and there are three types of athletic supporters that are worn. First, the standard supporter with the three-inch waistband and soft elastic pouch. There is a version that fits like regular underware or a Speedo, too. Second, the same supporter but with a plastic protective cup placed in a special pouch in front of the elastic supportive material. Third, the compression shorts that most players are wearing now. These act as a supporter, but not as extreme, and also help protect hamstrings. You can note the regular supporter's leg straps and the compression shorts under the football pants.
