There are numbers the San Francisco 49ers will never issue again, like 16, 8, and 80 due to the massive legacies behind them in 49er lore. And then there are numbers with a legacy yet to be created, like No. 0. And that aforementioned number has been claimed by 49ers safety Sam Womack. Womack once played under No. 26 but that is no more.
As training camp got underway on Wednesday, beat writers tweeted out Womack has claimed No. 0 as a jersey. This makes him the first 49er to have No. 0 in history.
