Holiday Auction Closing December 3
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 12/4/2016
Taking into account all of defensive end Eddie Edwards' sacks prior to 1982 (when sacks became an official NFL stat), he is the Cincinnati Bengals' all-time franchise leader. The Pro Bowler even recorded a 5-sack day in 1980. He played in both of Cincy's Super Bowls, receiving this Jostens 10K-gold, size 14 ring for Super Bowl XXIII. Led by Boomer Esiason, Anthony Munoz, Ickey Woods, Edwards and more, the 1988 Bengals transformed themselves from a 4-11 record the previous year to AFC champions. And only a late 49ers touchdown got in the way of a Super Bowl title. 15 diamonds compose the glittering football-shaped top, and the inner band is engraved, "Eddie Edwards / Finish Everything / 16 Bengals vs. 49ers 20." Minor general wear. Accompanied by a 1993 purchase LOA. This is only the third 1988 Bengals player ring to reach the auction block, with Ickey Woods' example selling in 2016 for over $15,500.
