Denver Broncos wide receiver Troy Franklin is set to don jersey No. 11 for the upcoming season, a change from the No. 16 he wore as a rookie. Franklin, who previously wore No. 11 at the University of Oregon, was unable to keep it when he was drafted due to Josh Reynolds holding the number. With Reynolds' departure, Franklin seizes the opportunity to return to his collegiate number.

In his first season, Franklin recorded 28 receptions for 263 yards and two touchdowns, and he is looking to enhance those stats in his sophomore year. The Broncos also welcomed several new players, with tight end Evan Engram making headlines as he opts for No. 1, marking a first for a tight end in the modern NFL era. Other recent acquisitions have made their number choices known, including wide receiver Trent Sherfield (No. 5) and linebacker Dre Greenlaw (No. 57).
