New Eagles’ safety Kevin Byard chooses jersey number

Philadelphia #Eagles safey Kevin Byard to wear jersey No. 31 after being acquired in a trade with the Titans

The NFL is a rough business, and with Mario Goodrich no longer in Philadelphia, his jersey number is now up for grabs.

The Eagles have a new Pro Bowl safety on the roster, adding the versatile Kevin Byard Julio Jones to the roster after a trade that saw GM Howie Roseman send Terrell Edmunds and two late-round 2024 NFL draft picks to Tennessee.

Byard is preparing to take the field for his first practice in Philadelphia, and he’ll wear the No. 31 worn by Goodrich just two weeks ago, according to the team’s official website.
