Jersey Number Changes: Kadarius Toney takes 89

Whatever makes him play better I'm on board. But as a fan I have not bought a jersey since Eli's rookie season. Between players switching numbers and frequent team turnover I just cannot justify dropping $ on jerseys. Also at 42 years old a part of me thinks it's silly to be wearing another mans name on my back...

I haven’t gotten a jersey since Eli either, I just think the whole numbers situation is interesting.

Will echo the sentiment that Toney should 100% be wearing a single digit number.  Maybe he is waiting for the final cut down for a number to free up?  I wouldn't buy a Toney #89 jersey quite yet.

No way he stays at 89. I think he ultimately ends up taking 17, currently worn by Clayton Thorson, but I think 6 is a possibility as well. It's a shame so many single digit numbers are retired. He should be #1. That's why I like what the Giants are doing with their 'retired' numbers now. Like 10 and 92 are essentially retired, but not officially, so in 50 years if there is some otherworldly DE or QB who comes along who is worthy of that number, they can technically get it. Kind of like what the Cardinals did with 99 and JJ.
