With 73 days left until the start of the Green Bay Packers NFL season, our countdown to the big day continues. Sunday, Sept. 11, is the day when the Packers travel to Jacksonville to take on the Jaguars.

Yesterday, we took a look at Henry Jordan, the best Packers player to wear #74.

The most recent players to wear the number were Daryn Colledge, who left town through free agency after he helped anchor the left side of the offensive line as the Packers won the Super Bowl in 2010., as well as J.C. Tretter, the best reserve lineman on the roster today.

But there have been a few others who have worn the number well – Tootie Robbins and Alan Veingrad are a couple.

For an in-depth look at every number and the players who wore them, we highly recommend “Packers by the Numbers: Jersey Numbers and the Players Who Wore Them,” by John Maxymuk.

We will focus on a different #73 today – Aaron Taylor – one of those offensive linemen who was part of the wall of blockers put together in the mid-1990s to protect Brett Favre and open holes for Edgar Bennett and Dorsey Levens.
