There\u2019s a new No. 3 in the Emerald City.<\/p>\n

Rookie safety and second-round draft pick Nick Emmanwori will be the first Seattle Seahawks player to wear the No. 3 jersey since longtime quarterback Russell Wilson, who donned the number for his entire decade-long career in Seattle before he was traded to the Denver Broncos in March 2022.<\/p>\n

The Seahawks announced jersey numbers for Emmanwori and the rest of the team\u2019s 2025 draft class<\/a> on Wednesday evening. Below is the full list of numbers:<\/p>\n

\u2022 OL Grey Zabel \u2013 No. 76
\u2022 S Nick Emmanwori \u2013 No. 3
\u2022 TE Elijah Arroyo \u2013 No. 18
\u2022 QB Jalen Milroe \u2013 No. 6
\u2022 DL Rylie Mills \u2013 No. 98
\u2022 WR Tory Horton \u2013 No. 15
\u2022 FB Robbie Ouzts \u2013 No. 40
\u2022 OL Bryce Cabeldue \u2013 No. 77
\u2022 RB Damien Martinez \u2013 No. 22
\u2022 OL Mason Richman \u2013 No. 78
\u2022 WR Ricky White III \u2013 No. 86<\/p>\n

And here are a few more interesting tidbits:<\/p>\n

\u2022 Emmanwori, an ultra-versatile defensive talent out of South Carolina, is slated to be the first defensive player in franchise history to wear No. 3<\/a>. Prior to 2020, the No. 3 was reserved for quarterbacks, kickers and punters<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Zabel, the Seahawks\u2019 first-round pick out of North Dakota State, is in good company with the No. 76. Previous Seahawks offensive linemen to don the number include Hall of Fame left guard Steve Hutchinson, two-time Pro Bowl left tackle Russell Okung and five-time Pro Bowl left tackle Duane Brown.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Milroe, the Seahawks\u2019 intriguing third-round pick out of Alabama, would be just the seventh player in franchise history to wear No. 6. The others include safety Quandre Diggs and backup quarterbacks Charlie Whitehurst, Austin Davis and Sam Howell.<\/p>\n
