The 49ers announced the uniform numbers of their five drafted rookies and 10 free agents on Tuesday, and a few standout upon first glance. The most obvious is that of No. 14 overall pick Javon Kinlaw, who will not only be expected to replace DeForest Buckner’s production on the field, but will do so while wearing the same No. 99.
Then there’s seventh-round pick WR Jauan Jennings, who will rock the No. 81 uniform, worn most notably by Terrell Owens and Anquan Boldin. Wide receiver Bradon Aiyuk, meanwhile, will wear the recently departed Marquise Goodwin’s No. 11, which was also notably worn by Alex Smith from 2005-2012.
Here’s the full list:
