Big-money edge rusher Yannick Ngakoue wanted No. 91, the jersey number he’s worn his entire career.

He’ll get it.

While Ngakoue returned home to prepare to move to the Chicago area — he should practice Tuesday — fellow defensive end Dominique Robinson changed his number to 90.

On Friday, Ngakoue sounded ready to make Robinson an offer for No. 91.

“Whatever it takes for me to get the jersey,” he said. “I mean, honestly, I love that number. Everywhere I’ve been I’ve thrived with that number. So hopefully I get it here.”

New tight end Marcedes Lewis will wear No.
