In a historic move, Dallas Cowboys linebacker DeMarvion Overshown will don the number 0 for the upcoming NFL season, marking him as the first player in franchise history to wear this number. This change comes after a challenging 2024 season where he suffered a severe knee injury, which included a torn ACL, MCL, and PCL. Overshown, previously wearing No. 31 and No. 13, reverts to the number he wore during his standout college career at Texas, where he established himself as a top linebacker.

The NFL reinstated the number 0 for players in 2023 after a 50-year absence, although restrictions remain for certain position groups. Overshown's stats reflect his potential, with 90 tackles, 5 sacks, and 1 interception returned for a touchdown across his first two seasons. His return to the field and new jersey number symbolize a fresh start and the hope for a successful 2025 season.
