The best active NFL player wearing each jersey number: 50-99

theScore's Andrew Dixon and Daniel Valente research and rank the best active NFLers at each jersey number.

Part 1 (0-49) | Part 2 (50-99)

50. Vita Vea, DL, Buccaneers

Vea feels like a lock for double-digit tackles for a loss, and he's an effective pocket pusher, too. Rousseau and Gay have flashed, but Vea's the established talent.

Others: Greg Rousseau (Bills), Willie Gay Jr. (Chiefs)

51. Kwity Paye, EDGE, Colts

Paye had six sacks and 10 TFLs in 12 games with Indy last season. Ojulari could catch Paye if he stays healthy and builds on a good early start to his career.

Others: Azeez Ojulari (Giants), Cesar Ruiz (Saints)

52. Creed Humphrey, C, Chiefs

Humphrey had stiff competition, but we opted for the anchor of the Chiefs' offensive line.

Others: Rashan Gary (Packers), Khalil Mack (Chargers)

53. Brian Burns, EDGE, Panthers Jared C. Tilton / Getty Images Sport / Getty

The Panthers' top pass-rusher had a career-high 12.5 sacks last season. Leonard could take this spot back if he returns to All-Pro form after playing in just three contests in 2022.

Others: Shaquille Leonard (Colts), T.J. Edwards (Bears)

54. Fred Warner, LB, 49ers

Warner is one of the best young linebackers in the league and earned the nod over two long-time Pro Bowlers.

Others: Lavonte David (Buccaneers), Bobby Wagner (Seahawks)

55. Logan Wilson, LB, Bengals

Graham is still productive (11 sacks in 2022) despite his age, but Wilson is an ascending player with an all-around game.

Others: Brandon Graham (Eagles), Leighton Vander Esch (Cowboys)

56. Quenton Nelson, G, Colts

There's no denying that Nelson is coming off a down season, but it'll take more than one to dethrone the 27-year-old.

Others: Demario Davis (Saints), Alex Highsmith (Steelers)

57. C.J. Mosley, LB, Jets

Mosley rebounded from a few campaigns of mediocre play and was named second-team All-Pro last year. Greenlaw isn't too far behind him, though.

Others: Dre Greenlaw (49ers), Germaine Pratt (Bengals)

58. Matt Milano, LB, Bills

Buffalo feeds on Milano's impactful plays, which included three interceptions and 12 TFLs in 2022. Sewell can catch Milano if he continues to develop.

Others: Penei Sewell (Lions), Bobby Okereke (Giants)

59. De'Vondre Campbell, LB, Packers Icon Sportswire / Icon Sportswire / Getty

The 30-year-old linebacker has tallied at least 92 tackles every season since 2017. Houston was an extremely productive situational pass-rusher as a rookie and could take over No. 59 if he rounds out his game.

Others: James Houston (Lions), Kenyon Green (Texans)

60. David Andrews, C, Patriots

Andrews allowed just two sacks on 485 pass-blocking snaps last year, per PFF.

Others: Mitch Morse (Bills), Daniel Brunskill (Titans)

61. Mason Cole, C, Steelers

Cole isn't a dominant blocker, but he showcased elite discipline in 2022. The 27-year-old allowed only two sacks and was flagged just once, according to PFF.

Others: Matt Hennessy (Falcons), Max Mitchell (Jets)

62. Jason Kelce, C, Eagles

It feels like Kelce could play forever after earning his fifth first-team All-Pro nod at age 35. Thuney is no slouch for the Chiefs, but Kelce might own No. 62 until he retires.

Others: Joe Thuney (Chiefs), Lucas Patrick (Bears)

63. Chris Lindstrom, G, Falcons

Lindstrom is coming off a breakout season in which he earned an elite 95.0 PFF grade and second-team All-Pro honors.

Others: Corey Linsley (Chargers), Austin Corbett (Panthers)

64. Tyler Linderbaum, C, Ravens

The Iowa product started all 17 contests for the Ravens as a rookie and was a force in the run game with an 84.2 PFF run-blocking grade.

Others: Mark Glowinski (Giants), Ted Karras (Bengals)

65. Lane Johnson, OT, Eagles Icon Sportswire / Icon Sportswire / Getty

Like Kelce, Johnson seems to be aging like a fine wine. The 32-year-old was a dominant pass-blocker in his 15 starts in 2022, earning an 89.8 PFF pass-blocking grade.

Others: Trey Smith (Chiefs), Alex Cappa (Bengals)

66. Ryan Jensen, C, Buccaneers

Jensen missed last year's regular season due to a serious knee injury, but he's an All-Pro-level blocker when healthy.

Others: Connor McGovern (Bills), Dylan Parham (Raiders)

67. Charles Cross, OT, Seahawks

Cross still has plenty of room for improvement, but he flashed as a rookie.

Others: Cordell Volson (Bengals), Drew Dalman (Falcons)

68. Taylor Decker, OT, Lions

Picking between Decker and Mailata was tough, with both being productive left tackles. Decker's fewer sacks allowed, penalties, and pressures gave him the edge.

Others: Jordan Mailata (Eagles), Brandon Scherff (Jaguars)

69. David Bakhtiari, OT, Packers

Bakhtiari is one of football's top tackles when healthy. McGlinchey could capture No. 69 with a few good years.

Others: Mike McGlinchey (Broncos), Shaq Mason (Texans)

70. Zack Martin, G, Cowboys Icon Sportswire / Icon Sportswire / Getty

Martin could be the best player ever to don No. 70. He earned his sixth first-team All-Pro selection in 2022.

Others: Rashawn Slater (Chargers), Kevin Zeitler (Ravens)

71. Trent Williams, OT, 49ers

The 49ers standout is one of the best in the league, regardless of position. Williams earned a 91.9 grade or better from PFF in each of the last three seasons.

Others: Ryan Ramczyk (Saints), Christian Darrisaw (Vikings)

72. Terron Armstead, OT, Dolphins

Miami spent big to acquire Armstead ahead of the 2022 campaign, and the blocker responded with his fourth Pro Bowl season.

Others: Taylor Moton (Panthers), Garrett Bolles (Broncos)

73. Dion Dawkins, OT, Bills

Dawkins earned back-to-back Pro Bowl nods while protecting Josh Allen's blindside.

Others: Jonah Jackson (Lions), Jonah Williams (Bengals)

74. Kolton Miller, OT, Raiders

The Raiders haven't had a ton of consistency along the offensive line outside of Miller. He's played 100% of the club's offensive snaps in each of the last four seasons, per PFR.

Others: Elgton Jenkins (Packers), D.J. Humphries (Cardinals)

75. Joel Bitonio, G, Browns Emilee Chinn / Getty Images Sport / Getty

Bitonio has earned five straight Pro Bowls, back-to-back first-team All-Pros, and a trio of second-team selections before that.

Others: Alijah Vera-Tucker (Jets), Orlando Brown Jr. (Bengals)

76. Kaleb McGary, OT, Falcons

McGary has been consistent since entering the league in 2019 and has played nearly every offensive snap in that time.

Others: Chukwuma Okarafor (Steelers), Jon Runyan (Packers)

77. Frank Ragnow, C, Lions

Another close call. Smith's frequent unavailability gave the edge to Ragnow between the Pro Bowlers.

Others: Tyron Smith (Cowboys), Wyatt Teller (Browns)

78. Laremy Tunsil, OT, Texans

We opted for Tunsil's longevity in a very close race. Thomas or Wirfs could easily leapfrog the Texan in the coming years if they maintain their elite play. Wirfs is also working through switching from right to left tackle.

Others: Andrew Thomas (Giants), Tristan Wirfs (Buccaneers)

79. Ronnie Stanley, OT, Ravens Will Newton / Getty Images Sport / Getty

Stanley takes No. 79 due to his talent and upside. He needs to remain on the field in 2023 to retain the top spot next year.

Others: Rob Havenstein (Rams), Spencer Brown (Bills)

80. Greg Dulcich, TE, Broncos

A trio of 2022 draft picks appear primed to battle for No. 80 for the foreseeable future. Dulcich earned the top spot after outproducing the others in fewer games a year ago.

Others: Jelani Woods (Colts), Isaiah Likely (Ravens)

81. Mike Williams, WR, Chargers

Williams could be one of the NFL's premier deep ball and red zone weapons if he stays healthy. Still, he eclipsed 750 yards in each of the last four seasons despite missing time.

Others: Tim Patrick (Broncos), Hayden Hurst (Panthers)

82. Logan Thomas, TE, Commanders

Thomas is a steady, though unspectacular, contributor. Bellinger flashed in his 12 appearances a year ago, but he's now behind Darren Waller on the depth chart.

Others: Daniel Bellinger (Giants), Adam Trautman (Broncos)

83. Tyler Boyd, WR, Bengals

While Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins deservedly get the spotlight, Boyd is an excellent tertiary option in the passing game. He's posted five straight campaigns with at least 762 yards and four touchdowns.

Others: Dalton Schultz (Texans), Tyler Conklin (Jets)

84. Cordarrelle Patterson, RB/KR, Falcons

Patterson is unlikely to replicate his 2021 production on offense, but he's still a threat to take any touch to the house.

Others: Kendrick Bourne (Patriots), Corey Davis (Jets)

85. George Kittle, TE, 49ers Ezra Shaw / Getty Images Sport / Getty

The 29-year-old is one of the most complete tight ends in the league and is coming off a career-high 11 touchdown receptions. It would take quite a bit to unseat Kittle, a four-time Pro Bowler.

Others: David Njoku (Browns), Hunter Henry (Patriots)

86. Zach Ertz, TE, Cardinals

Injuries have begun to plague Ertz, and the 32-year-old's hold on No. 86 doesn't feel ironclad. Slayton is in a prime position to leapfrog Ertz this year.

Others: Darius Slayton (Giants), Johnny Mundt (Vikings)

87. Travis Kelce, TE, Chiefs

There's a legitimate argument for Kelce as the best tight end to ever play the game, which is unfortunate for Hockenson. It's unlikely he'll catch the Chiefs legend unless he retires.

Others: T.J. Hockenson (Vikings), C.J. Uzomah (Jets)

88. CeeDee Lamb, WR, Cowboys

Both Goedert and Freiermuth have good traits and production, but Lamb is one of the best receivers in the league. The 24-year-old has 3,396 yards and 20 touchdowns through three seasons.

Others: Dallas Goedert (Eagles), Pat Freiermuth (Steelers)

89. Mark Andrews, TE, Ravens

Andrews has never finished a campaign with less than 550 yards and owns 34 career touchdowns. He turns 28 in September, but No. 89 could belong to Andrews for years to come.

Others: Tyler Higbee (Rams), Rashid Shaheed (Saints)

90. T.J. Watt, EDGE, Steelers Icon Sportswire / Icon Sportswire / Getty

We couldn't give this nod to anyone but Watt. The 2021 Defensive Player of the Year played in only 10 games last season, but it was still enough to earn his fifth Pro Bowl selection.

Others: Demarcus Lawrence (Cowboys), Grover Stewart (Colts)

91. Trey Hendrickson, EDGE, Bengals

Hendrickson is among the more underrated pass-rushers in the league. He's recorded three consecutive seasons with at least 24 QB hits.

Others: Preston Smith (Packers), John Franklin-Myers (Jets)

92. Justin Madubuike, DL, Ravens

The 25-year-old quietly pieced together a productive 2022 campaign, finishing with 42 tackles, 5.5 sacks, nine QB hits, and eight TFLs.

Others: B.J. Hill (Bengals), Zach Sieler (Dolphins)

93. Jonathan Allen, DL, Commanders

Allen has 127 tackles, 16.5 sacks, 26 TFLs, and 47 QB hits across the last two seasons. Campbell and Jones are solid players at this stage of their careers, but they don't match Allen's impact.

Others: Calais Campbell (Falcons), Justin Jones (Bears)

94. Cameron Jordan, EDGE, Saints Icon Sportswire / Icon Sportswire / Getty

Jordan continues to produce despite recently turning 34 years old. The pass-rusher has posted at least 7.5 sacks every season since 2012 and has made six consecutive Pro Bowls.

Others: Daron Payne (Commanders), Christian Wilkins (Dolphins)

95. Myles Garrett, EDGE, Browns

No. 95 is among the most loaded around the league with three All-Pro defenders rocking it. We opted for Garrett, but it's unbelievably close as Jones and Williams are also dominant forces.

Others: Chris Jones (Chiefs), Quinnen Williams (Jets)

96. Denico Autry, DL, Titans

Autry's versatility allows him to rush off the edge or from the interior. It translated into eight sacks, eight TFLs, and 19 QB hits in 2022.

Others: Maliek Collins (Texans), Derek Barnett (Eagles)

97. Nick Bosa, EDGE, 49ers

Like 95, No. 97 also features a defensive trio with All-Pro caliber talent. Bosa, the reigning Defensive Player of the Year, got the nod in part thanks to his league-leading 18.5 sacks a year ago.

Others: Dexter Lawrence (Giants), Cameron Heyward (Steelers)

98. Maxx Crosby, EDGE, Raiders

Crosby took the cake, but this was another tough call. The Raiders edge defender recorded more sacks (12.5), TFLs (a league-best 22), and QB hits (36) than Simmons and Hargrave in 2022. And he's still just 25 years old.

Others: Jeffery Simmons (Titans), Javon Hargrave (49ers)

99. Aaron Donald, DL, Rams Allen J. Schaben / Los Angeles Times / Getty

Donald has been one of the best players in football for a long time. Last year was the first season he hadn't received a first-team All-Pro nod since his Defensive Rookie of the Year campaign in 2014. Donald recorded five sacks, 10 TFLs, and 11 QB hits in an injury-shortened 2022 season.

Others: Danielle Hunter (Vikings), DeForest Buckner (Colts)
