Saints assign uniform numbers to their 2021 draft class; see who chose what

The six members of the New Orleans Saints draft class appear to have made their sartorial selections regarding which number will appear on their professional uniforms.

The latest roster on the Saints website includes uniform numbers for the Saints six drafted rookies (but not the undrafted rookie free agents).

Sean Payton, Mickey Loomis lay out vision for Saints draft class: What's next for rookies

Linebacker Pete Werner was the only member of the Saints draft class to take advantage of the NFL's revamped positional rules regarding uniform number options, choosing to continue wearing the No. 20 he wore in college. Previously, linebackers were limited to 40-59 and 90-99.

Here are the uniform numbers chosen by the Saints' 2021 draft class.

Defensive end Payton Turner: 98
Linebacker Pete Werner: 20
Defensive back Paulson Adebo: 29
Quarterback Ian Book: 16
Offensive tackle Landon Young: 67
Receiver Kawaan Baker: 14

NOLA

Of note, Ian Book chose a Joe Montana number, 16.

20 is a cool number for a LB.

As foretold by the elders in our old years of suffering, the next blessed QB from Notre Dame was given the number of Montana and delivered unto us at the end of the great pestilence.

I wondered if a player could request 00, but I don't believe they can or we would have by now.
