While the Mailman will be in a different jersey this upcoming football season, his jersey number will certainly look familiar.

Stetson Bennett made draft history this past week when he became the highest-drafted Georgia quarterback of the Kirby Smart era. Now with the festivities of the NFL Draft over, the 128th overall pick has made his decision as to what his number will be for the Los Angeles Rams.  

This upcoming season, Bennett will be wearing the number 13. The same jersey number that he wore for the previous four years at the University of Georgia. Prior to rejoining the Bulldogs as a scholarship quarterback in 2019, Bennett wore the number 22 for the Dawgs and was a notable member of Georgia's scout team during the 2017 season.

During his lengthy tenure with the Bulldogs, "The Mailman" earned a handful of accolades such as a Heisman finalist, two-time national champion, and was named MVP in 5 out of the 6 of the postseason games he started in. He now holds the record for most passing yards in single-season history for the University of Georgia.
