New Orleans doesn't actually have any true retired numbers, but here is a more accurate list.

 

* 31 Jim Taylor (officially retired, but is assigned to active players)

* 81 Doug Atkins (officially retired, but is assigned to active players)

* 51 Sam Mills (officially retired, but is assigned to active players)

* 57 Rickey Jackson (officially retired, but is assigned to active players)

Oakland None

:wacko: 0 for the Raiders, and just 1 for the Skins??

 

ETA: And how on earth do the 49ers have Dwight Clark's number retired, but not Rice's?

 

be kinda funny if a punter wore Favre's number for a year or two until they retired it :tup:

+1

I was thinking the same thing. It's hard to believe that the Raiders don't have any. They have had some pretty good players over the years.

I'm impressed that Reggie White #92 was retired on two teams, both Green Bay and Philadelphia. Wow.

Packer policy is they will NOT retire another number aside from Canadeo, Hutson, Starr, and Nitschke; at the ceremony, they retired Reggie White's "jersey", w-ever-tf that means.

 

I'd also assume that if/when Favre ever quits playing, #4 will be retired as well.

They have 92 as a retired number now, making it official to his widow.
