A star playing a position usually comprised of unsung heroes, Alan Faneca burned bright for his 13 seasons in the NFL. Faneca was a nine-time Pro Bowler and was selected first-team All-Pro six times. Faneca also added a Super Bowl win to his resume with the Steelers in 2005 that would cement him in Steeler history. This black, home jersey was game-worn by Faneca during the 1998 season, one of 2 seasons Faneca wore the number 65. He would also go on to win the Joe Greene Award as the team's top rookie that season. There is a Pro Line size "L" tag and a "98-50" tag in the neck, as well as a Pro Line authentic tag on the tail. The jersey shows heavy use with stains on the numbers, loose threads, scuffs, abrasions and 11 team repairs. There are also custom sleeves on this jersey belonging to an all-time great, whose induction into the Hall of Fame seems like an inevitability. All jerseys come directly from the Steelers archive and come with an LOA from the Steelers. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of Steelers Archives items will be donated to the Chuck Noll Foundation for Brain Injury Research.
