Like some of the surrounding jersey numbers, the No. 46 isn’t an overly prestigious one throughout Cincinnati Bengals history.
But two notables stand out.
One from modern times — long-snapper Clark Harris donned the number from 2009-2022.
One from the lore of the late 70s and early 80s — Pete Johnson, who led the team in rushing in each of his seven seasons with the team and was the all-time team leader in several categories before getting traded.
With roughly 46 days until the regular season kicks off, here’s a look at every player to wear the number for the Bengals, per the numbers at Pro Football Reference.
