Prior to his 25 year career as executive director of the NFLPA, Gene Upshaw was known as one of the greatest offensive lineman in the history of the NFL for the Raiders. Six Pro Bowls, two Super Bowl championships, Hall of Fame inductee and member of the NFL's 75th anniversary all time team are all part of his resume. When Upshaw passed away a few years ago, he was honored by the NFL by all players and all teams wearing a 'GU' and '63' on their jersey. We present one of the final game worn jerseys of his Hall of Fame career. The Oakland Raiders road game worn jersey is a size 33 with tag in collar as is the 'exclusively for the Oakland Raiders' tag. The jersey shows heavy use with team repairs evident. Upshaws' # 63 appears on front and back and 'UPSHAW'on back on nameplate. Jersey is graded a MEARS A-10 and full MEARS LOA and worksheet available for viewing at goldinauctions.com
