Question

Joe Burrow is wearing No. 9 for the Bengals. Previously the Bengals selected another quarterback No. 1 overall, Carson Palmer, and he also wore No. 9. What is the only other franchise that has selected two players No. 1 overall and given them the same jersey number? Typically with this kind of question, it’s not asked unless there’s a timely reason.

Answer

Houston Texans. They gave No. 90 to both Mario Williams and Jadeveon Clowney. Clowney (still wearing #90) now plays for Tennessee, and the Titans are hosting the Texans today.
