It’s funny how things work out sometimes. D’Andre Swift has yet to step on the field for a Philadelphia Eagles game that counts against the win-loss total, and the young man has already made his mark on this team’s 90-plus-year history.

As Philly marches through another rookie minicamp, jersey numbers have been revealed, and the former Georgia Bulldogs/Detroit Lions star will become the first player in franchise history to wear the Number Zero jersey.

Don’t take our word for it. Take a look for yourselves.

We approve. Here are the other updates for you. It’s time to hit up that online Eagles store and do some shopping.

  • QB Marcus Mariota, Number 8
  • WR Olaide Zaccheaus, Number 13

Here are a couple of things to keep in mind.

Philly’s pair of first-round draftees, Jalen Carter and Nolan Smith, select the numbers 98 and three respectively. The numbers they wore in college, 88 and four, are already owned by Dallas Goedert and Jake Elliott.

As you know the Eagles are home to the coolest social media team in all of sports. They put a lot of time into making this announcement, so here’s a bit of eye candy for you. Who would have thought a Twitter post that didn’t contain any live action or an on-field highlight could be this exciting?
