Josh Reynolds has been buried on the Rams’ depth chart at wide receiver the last three years, playing behind the likes of Sammy Watkins, Robert Woods, Cooper Kupp and Brandin Cooks over that span. He’s made some big plays for Los Angeles, like his touchdown catch against the Chiefs in the Rams’ 54-51 win in 2018, as well as his two-touchdown performance against the Packers that same season.
Reynolds has found ways to contribute, even if not to the extent that he’s hoped. Entering 2020, he’s still the No. 4 receiver, but he’s thinking about changing things up before the season begins.
He floated a question to Rams fans Monday asking if he should go back to his old jersey number. Reynolds currently wears 83, but he wore 11 at Texas A&M.
The majority of fans seem to like the idea of him going back to his college number, with only a few objecting to the switch.
A few fans pointed out that No. 83 was worn by former Rams receiver Flipper Anderson, who holds the single-game record with 336 yards.
Another fan highlighted Reynolds’ touchdown grab against the Chiefs in that historic shootout as a reason he should keep No. 83.
But overall, the consensus was that he should change to No. 11, which is not currently worn by anyone on the roster.
