Five new Jets players have their numbers for the 2020 season.
The Jets released numbers for newcomers Frank Gore, Bryce Hall, Quincy Wilson, Javelin Guidry and Shyheim Carter on Monday. Gore will wear No. 25 for his 16th season in the NFL. He’s worn No. 21 for the majority of his career, but has also occupied Nos. 20 and 23 before. The 37-year-old signed a one-year deal with the Jets worth $1.05 million and is expected to be the No. 2 back behind Le’Veon Bell.
Hall, drafted in the fifth round out of Virginia by the Jets in this past draft, will wear No. 37. He wore No. 34 at Virginia, but that is owned by Brian Poole.
As for Wilson, he was acquired in a trade from the Colts in exchange for a seventh-round pick in the 2020 NFL Draft. He’ll wear No. 27 after wearing No. 31 for the Colts. Bless Austin occupies No. 31 for New York.
Guidry will wear No. 40 for the Jets. The Jets signed him as an undrafted free agent out of Utah this year. Carter is on the Jets’ Reserve/COVID-19 list but will wear No. 40 after being signed as an undrafted free agent out of Alabama.
