​​In this hard-hitting episode of Digits Dynasty, we turn our attention to the powerful number 71 — a number worn by some of the toughest and most talented athletes across the sports world. We break down the Hall of Fame careers of dominant NFL offensive tackles Tony Boselli and Walter Jones, relive the ferocious defensive presence of Alex Karras, and skate onto the ice with NHL superstar Evgeni Malkin.

From Boselli’s role as the cornerstone of the Jacksonville Jaguars’ early success, to Jones’s unmatched combination of strength and technique that made him one of the most feared linemen of his era, we celebrate the warriors who protected the trenches. We’ll also spotlight Karras, a fierce defensive lineman for the Detroit Lions who later made a name for himself in Hollywood. Then, we shift to the rink to explore Malkin’s dazzling skill set, clutch playoff performances, and his place as a cornerstone of the Pittsburgh Penguins dynasty.

Who wore 71 best? Join us as we crunch the numbers, relive the unforgettable highlights, and crown the ultimate athlete to ever don this powerhouse number.
