Famous numbers in Jets history
Number 12 is Joe Namath's, and 13 is Don Maynard's, his teammate on the Jets' early teams. Number 28 is Curtis Martin's and 73 is Joe Klecko's. No. 80 was Wayne Chrebet’s and No. 24 was Darrelle Revis’s; neither is on the formal retired list. A number tells you the era, not the player, so always match it to a name.
Choosing a listed name and number
The Garrett Wilson jersey and Breece Hall jersey pages carry current numbers. A retired number is a tribute, not a current-player jersey. The NFL assigns number ranges by position, which affects which numbers a player can get. Our NFL jersey number rules guide covers those ranges. For team styles, start at the New York Jets jerseys page.
Ring of Honor names and formal retirement
Wayne Chrebet’s No. 80 is associated with a Ring of Honor career; the team announced that honor in 2014. It is outside the five-number retired list published by the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Darrelle Revis’s 24 is outside that list too. Keeping a number out of circulation is a team practice that should not be labeled a completed formal retirement. Garrett Wilson’s roster No. 5 is a current-player identifier, a different category from those honors.
