In college football can 2 players have the same number on their jersey?

Answer 1

you need to be more specific...because the number 81, for instance, is worn by both Terrell Owens of the Cowboys and Randy Moss of the Patriots. If you mean two football players on the same team with the same jersey number, that answer would be no, unless Owens and moss ever play on a pro bowl team together. Pro Bowl teams are the only teams that have two or players with the same number.

Answer 2

Yes. However, two players with the same number cannot be on the field at the same time. Therefore, if a team has to give the same number to two players, they almost always have one offensive player and one defensive player share the number.

Answer 3

Yes. As long as they are not on the field at the same time.

Answer 4

Yes.

For instance, Penn State currently has two active players with the number 1:

Robert Bolden(QB)

Nick Sukay(S)

They cannot be on the field at the same time.

Answer 5

No.
