Some of the best players in NFL history have worn a Philadelphia Eagles jersey at some point during their careers.
Our friends at Touchdown Wire recently took a look at the best players in NFL (and AFL) history to wear every jersey number.
That inspired the Eagles Wire to take take a look at Philadelphia’s history and track down the best player to wear each respective jersey number.
From jersey No. 1 to No. 99, here is the best Eagles player to wear every jersey number:
No. 1: Jalen Hurts

No. 2: Darius Slay

No. 11: Tommy Thompson

During a magical three-year run, Thompson led the Eagles to three straight NFL championship appearances from 1947 to 1949, throwing for 57 total touchdowns while Steve Van Buren would run for 34 touchdowns.
In 1947 and 1948, Thompson led the league in passer rating, and his 25 touchdowns in the latter year was a league high: he was just the second quarterback to lead the league in consecutive years in the category (after Ed Danowski) and just the fourth to lead the league multiple times (after Danowski, Sid Luckman, and Sammy Baugh).

He led the league twice in all-purpose yards (1962 and 1963 with 2,306 and 2,428 yards). He also led the league in kick returns and return yards twice, doing so in 1961 and 1963.
No. 23: Troy Vincent

No. 24: Nate Ramsey

Ramsey gets the nod over Sheldon Brown.
He spent 10 seasons with the Eagles from 1963-1972.
