Quarterbacks: 1 through 19

Runningbacks: 20 through 49

Wide Receivers / Tight Ends: 10 through 19, 80 through 89 (There are exceptions, Devin Hester of the Chicago Bears is a Wide Receiver numbered 23)

Offensive Linemen: Typically 60 through 79

Defensive Lineman: 90 through 99

Linebackers: 40 through 59, 90 through 99

Secondary (corners and safeties): 20 through 49

Punters and Kickers: 1 through 19

There are always a handful of exceptions, but this, for the most part, is league accurate
