The Patriots’ 12 undrafted free agents have received their first NFL numbers.

The New England Patriots officially kicked off their 2026 rookie minicamp this Friday, and with it came the exciting news of their undrafted free agent signings. A total of 12 players have joined the roster, each receiving their first NFL jersey numbers—a milestone moment for any aspiring pro.

Here's the full list of digits assigned to the Patriots' UDFA class, presented in numerical order:

With only 92 jersey numbers available—thanks to eight retired digits, including Tom Brady's iconic No. 12—some numbers will be shared this season. To avoid confusion, the team uses a "w" for white (offense/special teams) and a "b" for blue (defense) to differentiate players.

Five double-issues have emerged from this year's group:

  • No. 19: Wide receiver Jimmy Kibble (w) and cornerback Kobee Minor (b), last year's Mr. Irrelevant
  • No. 23: Wideout Nick DeGennaro (w) and safety John Saunders Jr. (b)
  • No. 29: Cornerback Channing Canada (b) and wideout Jeremiah Webb Jr. (w)
  • No. 36: Defensive back Kenneth Harris (b) and kicker Andy Borregales (w)
  • No. 39: Running back Myles Montgomery (w) and cornerback Brandon Crossley (b)

These undrafted rookies will join the team's nine-player draft class and a deep pool of tryout participants for minicamp, running from Friday, May 8, through Sunday, May 10. The Saturday afternoon session is open to the media, so stay tuned for full coverage and updates.

For Patriots fans, this is the perfect time to gear up with the latest jerseys and apparel—celebrate the new era and the fresh faces wearing those numbers on the field!
