The Buffalo Bills are set to being preseason football this weekend. With that comes a massive influx of players wearing jersey numbers that might not be current household icons. Yes, you know who wears “17” and you probably know a lot more than that about him.
Who’s that Bill? Jokes about vintage Madonna songs aside, the Bills have a lot of players on their roster at the moment — 90 to be exact. Moreover, the Bills have a lot of returning players who are set to wear new numbers during the 2026 NFL season.
You likely have preseason crushes who you’ve read about all offseason to this point. Knowing their jersey numbers makes it a lot easier to pick them out of a crowd and follow along with each and every play. Among the team’s most-discussed players at the moment, do you know what number rookie linebacker Kaleb Elarms-Orr wears?
Players rarely used to change numbers, but time changes everything. With that, you might drive yourself to Ranch dressing if you believe that Tyler Bass is still wearing his old jersey number this season (And just… why is he catching passes instead of kicking footballs?) Spoiler alert: Bass changed his number this season. Plus, can an NFL punter wear “39”?
Below, you’ll find out all the answers to that and more as we break down Buffalo’s preseason roster in two ways: first by jersey number, then a second time by last name. Preseason action gets everyone excited for the regular season. Will the Bills once again be darlings of the AFC, and return to the playoffs and get further than ever before under new head coach Joe Brady? With Josh Allen, the window is always open.
The oddsmakers at FanDuel Sportsbook currently list the Bills at -320 to make the playoffs during the 2026 NFL season, the best odds in the AFC. Buffalo also shares the second-best odds at making the Super Bowl (+1100).
Are you ready for some football?!
