Item Description
J-E-T-S, Jets, Jets, Jets!
You and your family will be chanting for Big Green when you bring home this fabulous prize. Retired Jets superstar Keyshawn Johnson has signed a mini football for you!
The Jets drafted Johnson with the top overall selection in the 1996 NFL Draft. He was the first wide receiver selected with the number one overall pick since 1984. Johnson played three seasons (1997-1999) under Bill Parcells, who in two seasons would turnaround the Jets from 1-15 in 1996, Johnson's rookie year to 9-7 in 1997 & 12-4 in 1998 & the franchise's first ever AFC East Division title. One of his best performances was in a 34-24 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars in an AFC divisional playoff game after the 1998 season. In that game, Johnson caught nine passes for 121 yards and a touchdown, rushed for 28 yards and a touchdown, recovered a fumble, and intercepted a pass on defense.
His all-around game has earned him selection to the Pro Bowl three times - 1998 and 1999 with the N.Y. Jets and 2001 with Tampa Bay. Johnson finished his career with 814 receptions, tying him at 17th all-time with Henry Ellard for career NFL receptions. His 10,571 yards receiving is the 24th highest total in NFL history. In reaching the 600 career receptions plateau in 118 games, he tied Herman Moore for the second fewest number of games needed in NFL history to reach that mark, and he became one of only three players in league history (Moore and Marvin Harrison) to reach 600 receptions in fewer than 120 games. He caught 512 passes in his first 100 games to rank as the fourth most receptions in a player's first 100 games.
Note that this is NOT a reproduction or laser-printed autograph: this is an actual signature, signed with a Sharpie, by Keyshawn Johnson himself.
Delight your favorite Jets fan with this fabulous prize!
