Shortly after the New York Giants selected Penn State product Abdul Carter with the third overall pick in the 2025 NFL draft, the discussion quickly ensued about what number he would wear.

Carter wore No. 11 during his playing days with the Nittany Lions, but that number has been retired by the Giants for their former Super Bowl-winning QB, Phil Simms. After the draft, Carter was clearly seeking to get the O.K. from Lawrence Taylor to wear No. 56, which is retired for LT. That will also not be happening.

Colin Cowherd slams Abdul Carter’s jersey request, calling it entitled as he urges rookies to “make [their] own legacy.”
