Amazing and rare 1984 New England Patriots jersey hammered with game use by linebacker Steve Nelson. White mesh top has Russell Athletic size 48, and 100% nylon tags on tail with over 15 repairs and an extremely scarce Original American Football League Team Silver Anniversary patch on left shoulder. Screen painted number 57 on front, shoulders, and back in red-on-blue; jersey displays great use. Nameplate on back was done with screened name and red vinyl letters, the vinyl letters have fallen off. Nelson was voted to three Pro Bowls and recorded more than 100 tackles nine times during his 14-year career, leading the team in tackles nine times and is a member of the Patriots Hall of Fame.
