David Tyree’s Super Bowl XLII Game-Worn Jersey: A Piece of NFL History
An Iconic Moment in Football
In the annals of NFL history, few moments stand out as vividly as David Tyree’s miraculous catch during Super Bowl XLII. This game, held on February 3, 2008, at the University of Phoenix Stadium in Arizona, saw the New York Giants triumph over the New England Patriots in a stunning upset. At the heart of this victory was Tyree’s unforgettable helmet catch, a play that has since become legendary in the world of football memorabilia【4:2†source】.
The Jersey: A Testament to Greatness
This remarkable jersey, worn by Tyree during that historic game, is a testament to his contribution to the Giants’ victory. The jersey is adorned with the player number “85” on the front, back, and each shoulder, with the name “TYREE” emblazoned across the back on a blue nameplate. All numbering and lettering are crafted in white tackle twill, adding a touch of elegance to this iconic piece. The jersey also features the official “NFL EQUIPMENT” logo shield embroidered on the v-neck, with “GIANTS” stitched below in white.
Presented to us as game-used, this jersey is properly tagged and, in our opinion, shows light use. It is accompanied by a Letter of Authenticity (LOA) from JSA, a New York Giants Certificate of Authenticity (COA), and a Steiner Sports COA, further enhancing its provenance and value.
The Super Bowl XLII Ticket Stub
Adding to the allure of this offering is the inclusion of a Super Bowl XLII ticket stub, signed by Tyree himself. The stub reads, “AFC-NFC WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP GAME SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 3, 2008, 4:00 P.M. UNIVERSITY OF PHOENIX STADIUM, ARIZONA.” The back of the ticket stub bears Tyree’s signature in blue pen, which, in our opinion, rates a 9 overall. It also features a Steiner Sports hologram sticker and a Super Bowl hologram sticker, attesting to its authenticity and significance.
