Tom Brady's #12 jersey is always among the best-selling. Doesn't every Patriots fan already have one?

14 QBs
3   WRs
3   TEs
2   RBs
2   CBs
It's all about the quarterbacks.

2 defensive players. I've never understood why the league's terrific defensive players don't sell more jerseys. J.J. Watt is usually on the list. Von Miller? Luke Kuechly? Patrick Peterson? Khalil Mack? Aaron Donald? Bobby Wagner? If I was a fan of those teams those are the jerseys that I'd buy.

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jason Witten pops up at #11 even though he retired this offseason. That's something.

I can't recall another time that the jerseys of two quarterbacks from the same team were among the best selling at the same time. But Carson Wentz and Nick Foles combined for a unique season last year.

I'm starting to get used to it but I'm still sometimes stunned that Kirk Cousins is on the Vikings.
