Trvia: SI's Best Players by Number




SI put out a fun article today. It listed off the best player who wore each number. Some had a lot of great options(12, 32) others (97, 98) not so much.

Going into this, I guessed there would be 5 Bears players who would make the cut. I was wrong, there were 8, and I only correctly guess 4 (the 5th was a runner-up). Can you name the 8 Bears players and thier Jersey number who made SI's list?

Also, Bears had three runners up by my count and multiple worthy of consideration. I'll give partial credit if you guess a runner up, but no credit for worthy of consideration.

One other fun fact, 1 player is listed twice. Any Guesses Who?

As always, answers will be in comments later in the week.
