Philadelphia Eagles defensive back, Bobby Taylor, is a key member on one of the strongest defenses in the league. In the neck of the jersey is a white label reading "99-48". The numbers denote the year and size, respectively. At the base of the "V" neck is the "NFL" patch and below this is the name "Eagles" in white Swiss Embroidered stitch. On the back of the jersey is a green nameplate with the name "Taylor". The player number "21" appears on the front, back and on each shoulder of the jersey. The letters and numbers are made of white on black tackle twill. The bottom of the shirt has been custom-cut and hemmed. The jersey shows game use and with the exception of the custom cut bottom appears to have no other alterations of any kind. Included with the jersey is a game used helmet. At the time of the production of the auction catalog, the helmet was being reconditioned by the Philadelphia Eagles. Both the jersey and helmet come with a letter of authenticity from the Philadelphia Eagles.
