Jersey Number Changes: A Way Too Early Topic


TheyCallMeAndy

Recommended Posts

As the topic implies, let’s speculate over just who might be rocking different digits in 2023.

 

There are two players who come to my mind immediately.

 

The first, is actually Tyler Bass. Now that skill position players can rock single digit numbers, Bass’ #2 might be at a premium. Khalil Shakir immediately comes to mind, as does a certain recently released 30 year old wideout who could be on our radar.

 

Why else might Bass change his number? For the first time in his career, his college number is actually available. The previous resident was some practice squader who got signed away, not sure if it’s been discussed. 
 

The second guy, and I think this is a slam dunk, is James Cook. I love the way 28 looks, but he was 4 in college and his brother wears 4 for Minnesota. I really don’t think Jaquan Johnson will be brought back, and Cook never updates the number in his insta handle, so what other proof do you need?

 

Who am I missing? Is there another guy you think will change numbers?

I just find it annoying.  Stick with your first jersey number as fans pay a lot for rookie jerseys.  
 

Plus, I get confused.  There were a few times this year that I got pissed at Jerry Hughes for showing no pass rush ability like I’ve become accustomed to.  Then I realized it was Boogie Basham and it all made sense.

Players that change numbers when on the same team have to buy out inventory...no charges if they change teams obviously or after contract expires and they resign (McKenzie).

And would look pretty cool too. 

It would look terrible.

 

28 is great. 33 for his brother was great as well and he went ahead and ruined that. Same with his teammate Alexander Mattison.

 

Single digits outside of QB’s and kickers is so gross I don’t even know where to begin.

I hope Bass and Cook do not change numbers. I bought my son both jerseys for Christmas. I’m not buying anymore😂!

 

All the NFL cares about is that players buy any inventory of jerseys and not care if fans have bought jerseys already.

I wonder if players get to keep them or NFL gets donation credit for giving them away overseas.
