Tom Brady<\/a> threw what felt like millions of touchdown passes for the New England Patriots and Tampa Bay Buccaneers while wearing the number 12 jersey<\/a>, and he's far from the only NFL quarterback who represented those digits with aplomb. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But the representation doesn't stop at football as we highlight standout athletes<\/a> in plenty of other sports, as well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For our list of the 10 best to ever wear a number 12 jersey, presented alphabetically by first name, we highlighted their professional careers\u00a0only<\/em>\u00a0while donning the double ones. These athletes were selected based on their accolades, statistical accomplishments, and talent while wearing a number 12 jersey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
