Earl Campbell is one of the most powerful running backs in NFL history. He was known as “Superman” in Houston, and he surely fit a similar profile when he reached the NFL, leading the league in his first year with 1,450 rushing yards and 13 TD’s while gaining MVP and Rookie-of-the-Year honors. His most memorable record setting Monday night against the Miami Dolphins that season ended with a 35-30 victory for the Oilers, decided by Campbell’s 81-yard touch down run in the 4th, one of three rushing TD’s that game for a total of 199 yards on the game (then a record). His running style is often imitated, but has never since been duplicated. This Houston Oilers road jersey is the perfect tribute to the all-time great Hall of Famer Earl Campbell. His number “34” screened on to the front, back and sleeves. “Campbell” spans the shoulder blades. The jersey show nice use with a team repair on the left shoulder and a few scrapes which have left stadium dirt stains.
