When the Los Angeles Rams take the field on Monday night against the Oakland Raiders, one player will be wearing a different jersey number. Rookie edge rusher John Franklin-Myers has switched from No. 57 to 94, taking Robert Quinn’s old digits.

He confirmed the switch on Twitter when a fan noticed the change on the roster.

Yes sir!!

No matter the position, 57 is somewhat of an obscure number. Arguably the greatest player to wear No. 57 was Hall of Famer Rickey Jackson with other notable names being Bart Scott, Olin Kreutz and C.J. Mosley, among others.

No. 94 was most famously donned by DeMarcus Ware and Charles Haley, as well as linebacker Chad Brown. Perhaps Franklin-Myers can fill the void left by Quinn, who made two Pro Bowls with the Rams and has 62.5 career sacks.

This number fits John Franklin-Myer much better than his first pick. When your over 6-4 & carry approx 290 lbs you should where something else beside #57. After wathing him in pre season I am sure he is much more DL'er than OLB/ER in my estimates. He is also a much better back up to Micheal Brockers than we had last season.

My # in HS was 57. You might notice that from my user name. I'm a little disappointed...
