Former running back Carnell “Cadillac” Williams wore his white Tampa Bay Buccaneers jersey during his rookie 2005 season. This jersey has been photo matched to two games – the home game against Detroit on October 2nd (13 rushing yards, 6 receiving yards) and the October 30th game in San Francisco (20 rushing yards, 5 receiving yards) and video-matched to a third game in which Cadillac has also signed this jersey indicating that he wore this jersey during the November 13, 2015 home game against the Washington Redskins where he had 20 rushing yards.

The inside back collar has a white patch that reads “05-40” and the back of the jersey has “WILLIAMS” sewn on in red tackle twill on a matching white nameplate. The sleeves have been shortened and tailored to fit over the shoulder pads and the Reebok logos are on each sleeve between the numbers and the Buccaneers pirate ship logo patch.
