GAYLE SAYERS
The Chicago Bears Hall of Fame running back signs a replica jersey.
Football Jersey signed: "Gayle Sayers". Replica Chicago Bears jersey ("alternate" bright orange
uniform worn in a few games, beginning in 2005. Sewn name and numbers, signed in black
felt tip in his #4 on the back. Twice an All-American at Kansas University, Hall of Famer
Sayers played seven seasons with the Chicago Bears. For his first entire season, Gale
scored 22 touchdowns and 132 points, both then-rookie records. Quiet, unassuming, and
always ready to compliment a teammate for a key block, Sayers continued to sizzle in 1967
and well into the 1968 season. Then, in the ninth game, Sayers suffered a knee injury that
required immediate surgery. After a tortuous rehabilitation program, Gale came back in 1969
in a most spectacular manner, winding up with his second 1,000-yard rushing season and
universal Comeback of the Year honors. But injuries continued to take their toll and, just
before the 1972 season, Gale finally had to call it quits. In his relatively short career, he
compiled a record that can never be forgotten. His totals show 9,435 combined net yards,
4,956 yards rushing, and 336 points scored. At the time of his retirement he was the
NFL's all-time leader in kickoff returns. He won All-NFL honors five straight years and
was named Offensive Player of the Game in three of the four Pro Bowls in which he
played. JSA authentication sticker (W40050) affixed to jersey. Fine condition.
