For the first time in his NFL career, new Colts receiver Keenan Allen will not wear No. 13

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — For the first time in his 13-year NFL career, veteran wide receiver and first-year member of the Indianapolis Colts, Keenan Allen, will no longer wear No. 13. Instead, the number belongs to third-year Colts receiver Laquon Treadwell, who wore the number last season.

Treadwell said he’s had conversations with Allen about possibly changing numbers, but Treadwell confirmed Wednesday that he will be keeping his number.

“Me and Keenan [Allen] spoke probably three times already,” Treadwell said. “He was just like, he’s not really worried about it and like I told him, I respect the game. I know what you did in your number. Me and my family did a lot of praying about it as well, so he was cool with me keeping the number, and we spoke briefly about it like I said a couple times, and we went forward from there.”

Treadwell has already switched numbers twice since joining the Colts in 2024. He opened with No. 7, but moved to No. 17 after cornerback Charvarius Ward signed in March 2025 and reclaimed the number he’d worn the previous three seasons with the 49ers. No. 17 didn’t last long, either, once quarterback Daniel Jones and his signature No. 17 arrived in the same free agency period.
