Looks like Kool-Aid gets 1.

Also I’m not a fan of Carlton Davis getting the cursed #23 that has not been kind to everyone who’s worn it since Slay.

Broadway getting ready to burst onto the scene with the double-9.

Jamo sticking with 9?!?!

2-bit Hooker?
Maybe 50 wasn’t available for his position.

Hooker should have been 50, per the great Tone Loc…

I need $50 to make you holler, I get paid to do the wild thing.

Yea it went kinda under the radar… does have some speed and a history with Coach Campbell in New Orleans

Retire 71. Alex Karras deserves it.

I honesty don’t like Jamo wearing 9. He should switch to 1. I think Stafford belongs as a Lions HOF’er. No one can wear 9 same as 20 or 81. In saying that, I will always love Stafford, and cheer the guy on, and continue to get my head exploded by that arm talent, but I’m also very much over him.

Numbers still available!

Skill players
0, 1, 25, 35, 38, 39, 43, 45, 48, 49

Lineman
51, 53, 57, 59, 61, 63, 64, 65, 67, 69, 72, 73, 78

RB/WR/TE
80, 83, 86, 88,

DL/LB/ST
94, 96

I can see the first 2 draft picks taking 1 and 0.

Retiring numbers is stupid. Eventually you will run out of single and two digits.
Just hang the honored jersey in a place of honor. The HOF isn’t enough?
Jamaal broke Barry’s TD record, already. Gibbs could very well break more of his records.
One thing, Lions fans, especially, need to move away from living in the past.

Houston should go back to 59 where he was kicking ass… 41 was some bad juju. Lesson here never change your number if it’s working :wink:

And the Lions’ should pony up the jersey pay-off he would owe the league. It’ll be worth it.

The team needs to do a triple retirement, like they did with #20.
