Steve Young was projected to be the number one pick in the 1984 NFL draft. He opted, instead, to go with the new United States Football League and signed with the L.A. Express. In 1985, after the USFL folded, Steve signed with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the team that held his NFL draft rights. He played for the Bucs for two seasons and in 1987 was acquired by the San Francisco 49ers. While there, lead the NFL in passing efficiency with a 101.8 quarterback rating his first year as the starter and holds the all time highest NFL quarterback rating of 112.8 for the 1994 Super Bowl Championship season. On the left front tail is the "RUSSELL" manufacturers tag with jersey size "46" and wash instructions. The player number "8" is screen printed on the front, back, and both shoulders in white on grey. The player name "YOUNG" is screen printed on a blue nameplate in white. The jersey shows game-use and appears to have no alterations of any kind.
