Chase Young to wear jersey No. 99 with Washington Redskins

Former Ohio State defensive end Chase Young has his NFL number for the Washington Redskins. The team announced jersey numbers last week, and Young got his request of wearing the No. 99 according to the Redskins’ website

Young wore the No. 2 at Ohio State, but the NFL requires defensive lineman to wear numbers 50 to 79, or 90 to 99. The former Heisman finalist decided to request the largest number of the bunch, and that was fulfilled.

If you’re wondering what this jersey looks like, never fear, several sites are already producing them. Here’s a look at what the No. 99 looks in burgundy and gold. It might take a little time to get used to a different number than a simple 2 emblazoned across the chest, but there’s a good chance it becomes a match made in Hog heaven.

This beauty is hopefully coming to a stadium, television, or streaming device near you soon.
