The main thing wrong with this jersey is the dazzle cloth shoulders. Bo always wore mesh.

Hard to tell... practiced jerseys for sure were dazzel cloth (see the program untold where Bo is sitting on sideline with Howie wearing dazzel cloth during practice)....size mostly see 48 in auctions

Admitted, I am not a expert on Raider practice jerseys. The description says it was game worn. I do not remember seeing names on the back of Raider practice jerseys of this era, but really do not know that it did not happen.

Years ago I talked to Raiders equipment personel about this very thing. They said (quote)" Bo always wore mesh quarterback shoulders". If you look at all the old BO, and QB, pictures they always were mesh.

I do not like the tagging either. The size is wrong, as you stated. Attached is a photo of the tag, which is in the collar, on a real Bo Jackson game used jersey. There may have been variations of tags over the years, but the size is always 48. On the 2 real jerseys that I have seen, both had collar tags.

I would guarantee Bo did not wear this jersey in a game.

Hi guys, here is a picture of the practice jersey from UNTOLD, Roger I agree with you about the sizing and the tag you show is dead on of the tagging I have of one of his jerseys....hopefully one day the mesh vs dazzel can be cleared up....

Anyone know where a legit Bo Raiders gamer is available for sale? What do they bring? Home/road? I assume home/black is more sought after?
