Jersey Numbers For Patriots Veteran Free Agent Signings Revealed

NFL fans now know the jersey numbers of New England Patriots veterans. The team announced the new veteran’s numbers on Tuesday as the organization finishes their virtual offseason. They are now focused on training camp, and it will take place at the end of July.

Rookies don’t have numbers at this time. In the past few seasons, the Patriots have given rookies initial numbers starting at 50 and all the way upward in the first few weeks of training camp.

Here are the jersey numbers of Patriots’ veterans:

2 – Brian Hoyer

10 – WR Damiere Byrd

13 – WR Marqise Lee

21 – S Adrian Phillips

22 – S Cody Davis

45 – FB Danny Vitale

52 – LB Brandon Copeland

94 – DT Beau Allen

Rookies won’t get their jersey numbers until Patriots training camp

The rookie class has 10 draftees and 15 undrafted free agents. They are expected to get their jersey number assignments during the preseason games. These numbers will probably change after the final cuts prior to Week 1.

If by any chance you haven’t noticed, no player will have the No. 12 or 87. These are the former numbers of Tom Brady and Rob Gronkowski. These two are now teammates on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Patriots will miss both players, and fans have been asking questions regarding Brady’s number. Will the Patriots retire No.12? Will they retire Gronk’s jersey number? There are so many questions regarding these two numbers.

We didn’t see Julian Edelman in this video, but he will probably have his old jersey number. 2020 will be an excellent season for the Patriots, and they will probably give Jarrett Stidham the leading role. Head coach Bill Belichick trusts his second-year quarterback and Brian Hoyer. The journeyman veteran will probably teach his younger teammate, and they will do work together in practice.

Coach B and the rest of the organization will enter a highly anticipating season and they will have to think of the potential ways to win. The team will have to do this without the GOAT. Brady is entering a good season with his team in Tampa.
