Mack Wilson Takes Cardinals’ No. 1 After Kyler Murray’s Release

The linebacker announced the switch in a social video enabled by the NFL's 2023 jersey-number rule change.

Overview

  • Wilson said he will wear No. 1 for Arizona next season in a video posted Thursday.
  • Kyler Murray had worn No. 1 for all seven of his Cardinals seasons before his release earlier this month.
  • The change comes as Wilson enters the final year of his three-year Cardinals contract.
  • He has cycled through Nos. 51 (Browns), 30 and 3 (Patriots), and 2 (Cardinals), making No. 1 the fifth number of his NFL career.
  • He becomes the 10th Cardinal to wear No. 1, and the fifth since 2000 along with Murray and kickers Cedric Oglesby, Neil Rackers and Matthew McCrane.
