After signing a one-year deal with the Eagles, pass-rusher Josh Uche claimed No. 13 as his jersey number. He may be switching that number as training camp approaches, however.
According to NFL Shop, Uche’s jersey is for sale as No. 0 — last worn by Bryce Huff, who was traded to the 49ers last month.
Uche is still listed as No. 13 on the Eagles’ roster, per their official website. No. 0 has only been worn by two Eagles in team history: Huff and running back D’Andre Swift in 2023. If Uche does make the switch, it will free up No. 13 for Azeez Ojulari, who wore that number at Georgia.

Uche, 26, spent four seasons in New England before being traded to Kansas City last year. He posted career-highs across the board in 2022, recording 11.5 sacks, 49 pressures, and 14 QB hits. If Uche can thrive in Vic Fangio’s scheme, the Eagles may have landed a low-risk, high-upside addition to their pass-rushing unit.
