Namath, the Hall of Famer who made New York Jets football unforgettable, led the team to one of the greatest upsets in Super Bowl history, earning Super Bowl III MVP honors in the process. He remains the first quarterback to win both a College National Championship and a major Professional Championship. Coach Paul “Bear” Bryant famously called recruiting Namath “the best coaching decision I ever made,” and this jersey offers an exclusive chance to own a piece of that legacy. The green mesh practice jersey is tagged with the Wilson label (size L) on the front left tail. Namath's number, #12, is painted in white on the front and back, with the number in green on the sleeves. His name, “NAMATH,” is painted in white across a green nameplate on the back. Joe Namath’s signature is visible on the back number in dark marker, though it has faded over time and iin our oppinion rates a 3. The jersey is believed to be from the preseason or practice, showing excellent wear and authenticity. This piece was originally offered in an SCP auction and was accompainied by a letter of provenance from Joe Namath’s mother, Rose Szolnoki, though the original letter was misplaced. A copy of the Letter of Provenance will be provided to the winning bidder along with original auction details.
