Description
2010 Brett Favre Game Worn Minnesota Vikings Jersey--Photo Matched to 70,000-Yard/500th Touchdown Reception Game (10/11 vs. Jets). "When I threw that touchdown to Randy Moss, I had been thinking about that for eight to ten years," Favre admitted to reporters after the game. A thirty-seven yard strike to his fellow future Hall of Fame teammate turned a desperate third-and-seventeen situation into NFL history in East Rutherford, New Jersey as the most durable player in NFL history became the first to reach the 500 career passing touchdowns milestone. Just three other men have joined the Gunslinger in that elite club since.Remarkably, much like Roger Clemens who pitched his 4,000th strikeout and 300th victory in the same contest, Favre wasn't content with just a single milestone in this game, likewise becoming the first NFL quarterback to pass for 70,000 yards, reaching the mark on that touchdown drive. He has since been joined by the same three legends who have recorded 500 touchdown receptions--Brady, Brees and Manning. Presented is a white mesh jersey from the game that saw Brett Favre rewrite the history books.
The jersey is a true beauty, clad in Favre's legendary number "4" in two-tone tackle twill on chest, back and shoulders, with "Favre" applied in purple to rear nameplate. Upper chest bears a second-year Captain's patch and a marvelous Vikings Golden Anniversary model to balance the design. Tail bears Favre's custom elasticized modification, claiming the manufacturer's labeling in the process. Interior collar reveals embroidered swatches reading "10-48" and "Q." Jersey exhibits solid, sweaty wear. Favre was sacked four times and rushed four more, passing 14-for-34 for 264 yards and three touchdowns, with his longest reception being that milestone tuddy.
This is Favre's first half jersey, while the drive that saw Favre reach 500 touchdowns and 70,000 passing yards came in the third quarter, but we assume Favre held onto his second half jersey for posterity. Joining the NFL Auction documentation and Resolution Photomatching paperwork are two photos of Favre posing at the jersey signing, which resulted in lengthy silver sharpie text on rear numeral reading, "Brett Favre 4 At Jets, 264 yds, 3 tds, 289 yards, 500 Tds, 70,000 yds."
