In the NFL, numbers are assigned by what position the player plays: 1-19: Quarterbacks, kickers, wide receivers, and punters.
20-49: Running backs, tight ends, cornerbacks and safeties.
50-59: Linebackers and offensive linemen.
60-79: Offensive linemen and defensive linemen.
80-89: Wide receivers and tight ends.
90-99: Linebackers and defensive linemen. Additionally, a jersey with #50-79 is usually an ineligible receiver (unless the officials have been notified; this must be done before the huddle on that play), and this helps the officials know who is/isn't allowed to catch a forward pass.
