Brett Favre’s 2008 Game-Worn Jersey: A Piece of NFL History

A Legendary Game and a Historic Win

On October 12, 2008, the New York Jets faced off against the Cincinnati Bengals in a memorable game that ended with a 26-14 victory for the Jets. This triumph was made even more special by the team donning their rare Titans throwback jerseys, a nod to their storied past. Among these jerseys was the one worn by the legendary quarterback, Brett Favre, during the second half of the game. This jersey is not just a piece of fabric; it is a testament to Favre’s enduring legacy and the Jets’ remarkable win.

Distinctive Features of the Jersey

The jersey is crafted with meticulous attention to detail, featuring a straight hemmed bottom with an elastic spandex hem. Notably, it lacks any manufacturer’s tags, adding to its unique character. Inside the rear collar, a strip tag with “08-52” is present, alongside “BCG58122X.” The player number “4” is prominently displayed on the front, back, and sleeves, while “FAVRE” is emblazoned across the back on a blue nameplate. All numbers and letters are rendered in bronze tackle twill, enhancing the jersey’s aesthetic appeal.

• Custom QB Sleeves: The sleeves are specially designed for quarterbacks, featuring the Reebok logo patch.
• NFL Equipment Logo: The V-neck proudly displays the official “NFL Equipment” logo shield.
• Captain’s Insignia: A Captain’s “C” with one star embroidered in gold sparkle adorns the right chest.

Favre’s Personal Touch

Adding to the jersey’s allure is Brett Favre’s signature on the back number, inscribed with “4 Game Used 10/12/08 Bengals 14 Jets 26,” which rates a 7. This personal touch not only authenticates the jersey’s game-used status but also immortalizes Favre’s contribution to the Jets’ victory. The jersey was presented to us as game-used and in our opinion, shows appropriate use.

Accompanied by Authenticity

This extraordinary piece of football memorabilia is accompanied by a Letter of Authenticity (LOA) from Brett Favre himself, as well as additional LOAs from JSA and another reputable source. Furthermore, the jersey is supported by a photo and video match, providing irrefutable evidence of its authenticity and historical significance.
