Trotter Officially Gets His No. 54

Philadelphia Eagles vs Atlanta Falcons - September 12, 2005
Trott will be back in Philly, and in his signature #54.


After Jeremiah Trotter signed his one-year deal with the Eagles last week, he said one of his first priorities was to talk to Tracy White about getting the No. 54 jersey that made him a fan-favorite in Philadelphia.

He's got the jersey, but what he gave up for it still isn't exactly known. Trotter won't say, and White is also staying mum saying only that they talked one-on-one in the equipment and eventually came to a deal.

Back in 2004, when Trotter began his second stint with the team, Nate Wayne made him wash his car at one of his charity car washes in order to get the jersey back. We've seen anything from a monetary transaction to something small like washing the other's car, so there's no telling what White and Trotter agreed upon.

If we don't see or hear anything out of Trotter, it just means he bought the number from White. However, if White thinks anything like Nate Wayne, we could have some more light-hearted news for you.

White will now wear the number 52, and Trotter is expected to practice with the team today in about an hour-long 10-10-10.

Also, some more news filed in the "Not Really Worth Pointing Out But I Will Anyway" category, both Wayne and White were Packers before coming to Philly and stealing Trott's number. Worth pointing out? Not really. But, there you go.
