It may be the Pats' day to shine now, but once upon a time, Tom Brady and company fell victim to one of the all-time biggest upsets in pro sports. (Cue David Tyree's helmet catch.) With a mighty comeback during the final; a 12-play, 83-yard drive gave Super Bowl MVP Eli Manning the thrilling 17-14 victory. It gave the Big Blue its third championship in franchise history.
For his efforts that season, running back Danny "DJ" Ware received this large, 71-gram, size 12 ring featuring numerous real diamonds as part of a triple Lombardi Trophy design. The 14 K-gold showpiece is engraved inside the band "Tiffany & Co. 585" and rates Near Mint condition. This is accompanied by a "NY 2007 SUPER BOWL CHAMPIONS" wooden presentation box (5" x 5" x 2-1/2").
Over the past few years, two other 2007 Giants championship player rings (of Derrick Ward and Darren Barnett) have reached the auction block and both sold for over $50,000. Danny Ware's Super Bowl XLII ring will likely prove no exception.
