For those keeping track of jersey numbers, a few changes for #49ers:

WR Jacob Cowing -- No. 4
WR De'Zhaun Stribling -- No. 7
WR Demarcus Robinson -- No. 11

New OL Jarrett Patterson -- No. 58

Heartless stealing Daejon Love's number as soon as he's gone.

My opinion don't matter but I feel like 15 looks better

Agreed. I would prefer a number in the 80s like some others mentioned above.
#7 on a WR just seems weird to me.

He didn't like it when KS kept calling him Jauan Jennings.

15 looks more intimidating, he looks bigger for some reason... maybe because Jauan did his part and left a legacy. Just like how Deebo made #19 look tough. #1 not so much.

I guess Stribs will have to do the same with #7. But I swear if for some reason he looks smaller now lol.

I was hoping Evans would change his number. 5 just doesn't look right.

lol to me #5 looks more right for a WR, than #7.

But as I type that I search to find out that Puka Nacua (Poly connection) wears #7.. as does Brian Thomas Jr.

Puka wears 12. He wore 17 before DAdams arrived in LA.

I was hoping he take on 81. Single digits for receivers looks odd. But so does for LB and DL.. I miss the old numbering system. You know the position of a player based on a number.

What happened to wrs rocking jersey numbers in the 80s?

#88 and #80 are my favorite looking numbers on wrs

7 is better than 15 though, it just looked like jauan jennings was still out there
