Bijan Robinson, other Texas draftees choose NFL jersey numbers

Bijan Robinson, DeMarvion Overshown and Roschon Johnson will be sporting new numbers in the NFL.

A few former Longhorns received new jersey numbers on Tuesday.

Texas’ three highest selections in the 2023 NFL draft will be sporting new jersey numbers with their respective teams this upcoming season. Bijan Robinson, drafted No. 8 overall to the Atlanta Falcons, chose a historic number with Atlanta.

New Dallas Cowboys linebacker DeMarvion Overshown will have to be creative in coming up with a new nickname as No. 0 is taken in Dallas by safety Jayron Kearse.

Roschon Johnson, who legitimately has the chance to become the starting running back for the Chicago Bears this season, chose a fitting jersey number. His previous No. 2 jersey that he wore in college belongs to Bears starting wide receiver DJ Moore.

Here’s a look at which jerseys Robinson, Overshown and Johnson will be wearing at the professional level. We’ll update this tracker once Keondre Coburn and Moro Ojomo’s jersey numbers are announced.
