NFL Shop reveals jersey number for Vikings 1st round pick Dallas Turner image

The Minnesota Vikings selected Alabama EDGE Dallas Turner with the 17th overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. It was in itself an interesting decision to make the trade-up for Turner because the cost associated. However, it was a good value to get the ninth-ranked player on the consensus board at the 17th selection.

One of the things that fans really care about are jersey numbers. It's an arbitrary thing, but you'd be surprised on how many people care about it, mainly due to vibes. While most players either announce or have their numbers announced, Turner's number was released in an unconventional way. His jersey went up on NFLshop.com and his number in 2024 will be 15.

Is 15 going to be a good vibes number for the fanbase? Probably, especially since it's the number he wore in college. You can buy his jersey here.
