-  the #13 jersey was worn years later by Dave Jennings from 1985-1986 before being retired in honor of Don Maynard.
-  the #73 jersey was worn again in 1996 by David Williams for one season before being retired in honor of Joe Klecko.

numbers to be considered:
- the #75 jersey of Winston Hill (1963-1976) with record 8 ProBowl appearances as a NYJ.

outside looking in:
- the #99 jersey of Mark Gastineau (1979-1988) with 5 ProBowl appearances. Five players and counting have since worn that number.

numbers to be considered in the distant future:
- the #28 jersey of Curtis Martin
- the #80 jersey of Wayne Chrebet
