No. 1: Which Jersey Numbers Have Changed from Last Season?
Every spring game, there are the inevitable moments when fans ask the question, “Who is that?!” Most of the time, this is because certain jersey numbers aren’t recognizable yet. Every offseason sees newcomers take over numbers that were once worn by other players or returning players decide to change their numbers from the previous year.
Juju McDowell wore #0 in the bowl game after the transfer of Jaheim Bell and seems set to keep the number this season. Presumed contributor at corner O’Donnell Fortune has changed his number from 25 to 3, a number that was worn by Devonni Reed in last year’s secondary. There are bound to be other changes, as well, and the spring game can be a fan’s first real opportunity to get used to the new numbers.
