The Detroit Lions are undergoing a shift in jersey numbers ahead of the 2025 season. Notable changes include running back Jahmyr Gibbs switching from number 26 to 0, while wide receiver Jameson Williams trades in his number 9 for 1. Gibbs, who tied for the NFL lead with 16 rushing touchdowns in 2024, is aiming for a fresh start with his new number. Meanwhile, Williams had a standout season, leading the Lions with 17.3 yards per reception among receivers with at least ten catches.

Other Lions making number changes include cornerbacks Terrion Arnold and Ennis Rakestraw Jr., who will wear numbers 6 and 9, respectively. The move follows the departure of Maurice Alexander to the Chicago Bears, creating opportunities for these promising players. Fans should be aware that their Gibbs No. 26 jerseys may soon be outdated, signaling a new era for the Lions as they prepare for the upcoming season.
