NFL's finest lively gamers by jersey quantity, from 1 to 99 - The Shepherd of the Hills Gazette

kuangkunang.blogspot.com

What’s in a number? NFL players take pride in the digits they wear on their jerseys. Those numbers represent them as much as their last names do, and players are associated with them forever.

But of the league’s current players, who is the best at each number? Some, such as No. 12 and No. 99, present epic competitions. Others used to have few viable contenders until players started wearing non-traditional numbers for their positions.

From 1 to 99, here’s who Sporting News jersey-backs most for the 2020 season.

  • #1

    Kyler Murray, QB, Cardinals

    It took another Heisman-winning special No. 1 overall pick to knock out another, Cam Newton.

  • #2

    Matt Ryan, QB, Falcons

    Ryan remains the deuce who’s second to none.

  • #3

    Russell Wilson, QB, Seahawks

    He is a lot more expensive in that trey now than he used to be.

  • #4

    Deshaun Watson, Texans

    Watson gets the slight edge over that other big-time QB in Texas, Dak Prescott of Big D.

  • #5

    Teddy Bridgewater, QB, Panthers

    Bridgewater went an appropriate5-0 as a Saint and now he’s trying to bring five alive in Carolina.

  • #6

    Baker Mayfield, QB, Browns

    We respect the heck out of Rams punter Johnny Hekker, but we still had to give six to Baker.

  • #7

    Ben Roethlisberger, QB, Steelers

    This soon will be a lucky number in the Hall of Fame.

  • The MVP is the new royalty in purple as the greatest eight of them all.

  • #9

    Drew Brees, QB, Saints

    They say nine has some mystical mathematical properties — like Brees’ healthy career stats.

  • #10

    DeAndre Hopkins, WR, Texans

    On a scale of 1-10, Nuk remains burning hot as the game’s best wideout.

  • #11

    Julio Jones, WR, Falcons

    He adds up to Matt Ryan’s number as the Falcons QB’s elite go-to guy.

  • #12

    Tom Brady, QB, Buccaneers

    Brady has that GOAT feeling again in Tampa Bay to jump ahead of that elite guy in Green Bay.

  • #13

    Michael Thomas, WR, Saints

    Two first names aren’t unlucky, either — that only makes him more special.

  • #14

    Chris Godwin, WR, Buccaneers

    Thanks to Brady snatching his number to throw to him, Godwin gets to rule this number after his breakout.

  • #15

    Patrick Mahomes, QB, Chiefs

    Let’s hope he has at least 15 more years like 2018 and 2019.

  • #16

    Tyler Lockett, WR, Seahawks

    Lockett takes over this sweet one from Rams rival Jared Goff.

  • #17

    Davante Adams, WR, Packers

    With Philip Rivers in decline, there was no choice but to go to the elite receiver for Aaron Rodgers.

  • #18

    Cooper Kupp, WR, Rams

    Kupp ends the long run of A.J. Green at this number, just edging fellow rising wideout Calvin Ridley.

  • #19

    Amari Cooper, WR, Cowboys

    Hanging with him, he’s a pretty good choice for the last of our teen titans.

  • #20

    Jalen Ramsey, CB, Rams

    We can bet two Jacksons that he thinks he’s the best 20 since Ed Reed.

  • #21

    Ezekiel Elliott, RB, Cowboys

    The only top back who can hit blackjack on every run.

  • #22

    Christian McCaffrey, RB, Panthers

    There are a lot of roman numerals in Run CMC, but he’s more the Greek god of this figure.

  • #23

    Jaire Alexander, CB, Packers

    It’s hard to pull off wearing this number north of Chicago, but here it belongs to a hot young corner in the same division.

  • #24

    Stephon Gilmore, CB, Patriots

    You can double a departed Brady and get a Patriot the team can’t do without now.

  • #25

    Richard Sherman, CB, 49ers

    Sherman regains this cornerback-friendly honor over Chris Harris Jr.

  • #26

    Saquon Barkley, RB, Giants

    He’s ready to run healthier for a big Year 3, a year aftertaking this from fellow New York back Le’Veon Bell.

  • #27

    Tre’Davious White, CB, Bills

    With Malcolm Jenkins out of the league, White gets to take over this pristine number.

  • #29

    Malik Hooker, S, Colts

    Hooker takes over for a safety now looking for a home, Earl Thomas.

  • #30

    Austin Ekeler, RB, Chargers

    With Todd Gurley out of Los Angeles and fading, the leaping Ekeler deserves to take thirty.

  • #31

    Raheem Mostert, RB, 49ers

    With David Johnson out of the NFC West and Byron Jones switching humbers, it’s time for some extra Mostert with all these flavors.

  • #32

    Tyrann Mathieu, S, Chiefs

    With Eric Weddle retiring, it’s time for another big-time playmaking safety to own this again.

  • #33

    Jamal Adams, S, Seahawks

    Tramon Williams, CB, Packers

    Still solid after all theseyears back in Green Bay, he joins Alexander on the list.

    He’s a strong 20-something-year-old to end the 30-somethings.

    Kerrith Whyte Jr., RB, Steelers

    Whyte looks like he might make the Steelers again because of his speed.

  • #41

    Alvin Kamara, RB, Saints

    Anthony Sherman, FB, Chiefs

  • #43

    John Johnson, S, Rams

    His numbers and names are not all the same.

  • #44

    Marlon Humphrey, CB, Ravens

    Humphrey continues to make it a Ravens-heavy list.

  • #45

    Deion Jones, ILB, Falcons

    He remains Atlanta’s favorite defensive number.

  • #46

    Clark Harris, LS, Bengals

    Long snappers for the win. Harris gets them on the board in the 40s as usual.

  • #47

    Josey Jewell, LB, Broncos

    He’s the crown Jewell of this number with not much out there except a few more linebackers.

  • #48

    Bud Dupree, OLB, Steelers

    An edge-rusher worthy of his Dupree distinction.

  • #49

    Tremaine Edmunds, LB, Bills

    The first-rounder still has a lot of room to improve.

  • #50

    K.J. Wright, OLB, Seahawks

  • #52

    Khaiil Mack, OLB, Bears

    Second team, same dominance, every week of every year.

  • #53

    Maurkice Pouncey, C, Steelers

    Herbie the Love Bug would be proud of what he does as a blocker.

  • #54

    Bobby Wagner, ILB, Seahawks

    How cool is it for him to be right in the middle of this list, too?

  • #55

    Chandler Jones, OLB, Cardinals

    Sometimes he seems like he’s driving faster than 55 off the edge.

  • #56

    Quenton Nelson, G, Colts

    No one will ever wear this number as well as LT did, but Indyis where it’s at now.

  • #57

    C.J. Mosley, ILB, Jets

    He has a big variety of ways he can make plays, too.

  • #58

    Von Miller, OLB, Broncos

    He might actually like being called Von Cinco Ocho.

    Whitney Mercilus, OLB, Texans

  • #60

    David Andrews, C, Patriots

  • #61

    Rodney Hudson, C, Raiders

  • #62

    Jason Kelce, C, Eagles

    He was an even easier snap decision in front of Carson Wentz.

    Corey Linsley, C, Packers

    The 60s seem to be a real center of attention for this list.

  • #64

    J.C. Tretter, C, Browns

    When you’re 64, you’re needed to get Baker the ball.

  • #65

    Lane Johnson, OT, Eagles

    Leave it to Lane to stop the center run with some tackle love.

  • #66

    David DeCastro, G, Steelers

    He gets his kicks by opening big running lanes.

  • #67

    Justin Pugh, G, Cardinals

    Pugh is a huge asset for Arizonaand replaces Daniel Kilgore on this list.

  • #68

    Taylor Decker, OT, Lions

    Decker is one big dude (6-7) worthy of this big number in front of Matthew Stafford.

  • #69

    David Bakhtiari, OT, Packers

    More Gronk means more Gronk jokes with this number, so we just made another one.

  • #70

    Zack Martin, G, Cowboys

  • #71

    Mitchell Schwartz, OT, Chiefs

  • #72

    Terron Armstead, OT, Saints

    Jonah Williams, OT, Bengals

    As Marshal Yanda hangs it up, the door opens for the Bengals’ young tackle.

  • #74

    Anthony Castonzo, OT, Colts

    With Joe Staley retiring, this was a no-brainer for Castonzo, who decided not to yet.

  • #75

    Brandon Scherff, G, Washington Football Team

    There’s a new Scherff in 75 town to edge Joel Bitonio.

  • #76

    Duane Brown, OT, Seahawks

    He has that Spirit of 76, yes he does, to help Russell Wilson stay upright.

  • #77

    Tyron Smith, OT, Cowboys

  • #78

    Jack Conklin, OT, Browns

    Conklin carries his heavy blocking weight from Nashville to Cleveland.

  • #79

    Ronnie Stanley, OT, Ravens

    With Brandon Brooks not playing in Philly, it made sense to pick Stanley in Baltimore.

  • #80

    Jarvis Landry, WR, Browns

    The prolfiic one is a radically awesome way to start the 80s.

  • #81

    Austin Hooper, TE, Browns

    Hooper keeps Cleveland rockingon this list, moving over from Atlanta.

  • #82

    Jamison Crowder, WR, Jets

    With Delanie Walker retiring, Crowder stands out among the crowd here.

  • #83

    Darren Waller, TE, Raiders

    Waller is a total baller at tight end, enough to edge Bengals slot ace Tyler Boyd.

  • #84

    Irv Smith Jr., TE, Vikings

    With no Antonio Brown, it’s time to turn to a promising young tight end.

  • #85

    George Kittle, TE, 49ers

    His old-school blocking and receiving takes us back to the future.

  • #86

    Hunter Henry, TE, Chargers

    Make that two elite tight ends cracking the list back-to-back.

  • #87

    Travis Kelce, TE, Chiefs

    That’s three elite tight ends in a row, and Kelce finally gets to replace Gronk here with Gronk back.

  • #88

    Evan Engram, TE, Giants

    Whoa. Four elite tight ends in a row. This position is suddenly loaded.

  • #89

    Mark Andrews, TE, Ravens

    Mind. Blown. Andrews closes this amazing run.

  • #90

    T.J. Watt, OLB, Steeers

    J.J. couldn’t quite make it at 99, but T.J. carries the torch over Jadeveon Clowney.

  • #91

    Fletcher Cox, DT, Eagles

    Philly’s defensive line has strength in numbers, too.

  • #92

    Marcus Davenport, DE, Saints

    He is marching to some big numbers as a pass rusher.

  • #93

    Calais Campbell, DE, Ravens

    He’s still Calais after all these years, and Baltimore also looks great on him.

  • #94

    Cameron Jordan, DE, Saints

    Consider him the Airness of New Orleans’ defense.

  • #95

    Chris Jones, DT, Chiefs

    Kansas City gets on the board one last time here.

  • #96

    Akiem Hicks, DE, Bears

    Like Khail Mack, he has found a happy new home in sweet home Chicago.

  • This is a loaded number, so much so that Nick had to beat out his brother Joey.

  • #98

    Maxx Crosby, DE, Raiders

    He’s a rising young pass rusher to the Maxx.

  • #99

    Aaron Donald, DT, Rams

    He is the only dominant defensive force who make can J.J. Watt settle for second.
