Top is Rob Johnson, who started for the Bills over Doug Flutie in their 1999 Playoff loss to Tennesee.  Don't know who the bottom guy is, but based on the theme of the thread I guess his last name is also Johnson.

Yeah that's Josh Johnson, played from 2008-11. Rob Johnson backed up Brad Johnson during the Super Bowl too

Between the two of them, one regular season game played (by Levi, 2/3 for 24 yards with 0 TD and 1 Int.)

It's the same franchise, so technically it fits.  Peter Stastny and his boy Paul.

A similar situation....

Bobby Hull and Brett Hull both in #9 for Winnipeg/Phoenix/Arizona/Somewhere Else

 

They had to un-retire Bobby's #9 for Brett to wear it.

I'm really surprised that there are this many examples.

Does this count (player and manager -- Cal Ripken, Sr. and Billy Ripken)?

I am, too.

Though I suppose I shouldn't be, considering some of the names involved: Jones, Brown, Johnson, Davis, Williams -- some of the most common surnames.  And then there are the relatives, which is kind of a separate sub-category.
