The San Francisco 49ers have their first No. 0 jersey number in franchise history, and it belongs to cornerback Samuel Womack. According to Matt Barrows of The Athletic, the second-year player gave up his No. 26 jersey to don the goose egg this season.
Breaking news: CB Samuel Womack has changed his jersey number from 26 to 0.
The 49ers are set to kick off their first training camp practice today in Santa Clara. Several players, including Womack, are on the practice field beforehand to warm up.
This offseason, the NFL announced that it would start allowing players—other than offensive and defensive linemen—to wear the jersey No. 0.
San Francisco made Womack (5-10, 189) a fifth-round selection (No. 172 overall) out of Toledo last year. He registered 19 tackles, a tackle for a loss, two passes defensed, an interception, and a forced fumble through 16 game appearances (one start) with the 49ers last season, per Pro Football Reference.
