    V. Miller keeps his #51
    Dexter goes to 98 (from 9)
    Cox goes to 57 (from 1)
    O'Cyrus now 64 (from 54)
    Shorter goes to 18 (from 4)
    Dean keeps his '0'

    Anthony Richardson

    Team: Indianapolis Colts

    Jersey: 5 (previously 15)

    “A guy that takes great pride in doing his job for the team. He’s going to be a great representative of the organization and community. Really just a unique talent. Arm talent, phenomenal athlete. 6-4, 250 pounds. There’s not been many players like Anthony Richardson in the history of this game. I’m excited. He’s found a group that believed in him and wants to build around him. Anthony is going to be a great Colt.” — Billy Napier

    Is that good news for Dean? I can't remember seeing anyone wearing No. 0 in the NFL.

    Does it matter? There is a very slim chance he will make an active roster. As an UDFA, he will have to beat out a lot of talent ahead and around him. Best case is he is signed to a practice squad.

    They just allowed 0 as an eligible number in the NFL this year.

    With how particular guys are about their numbers, especially wanting single digits it weirdly might be a sign he actually has a chance to make the roster. Of course it could just be no one wanted to be 0

    Jim Otto wore 00 when he played for the Raiders, but I don't remember anyone wearing 0.
