New England Patriots safety Jabrill Peppers might be changing his jersey number for the 2023 season back to No. 5.
Peppers has had success with the number before during his run at the University of Michigan. He wore No. 3 for New England in the 2022 season, but he could be returning to his roots now that backup quarterback Brian Hoyer is gone and his No. 5 jersey number is available.
Peppers is coming off a season that saw him record 60 combined tackles as well as a fumble recovery.
