What do you guys think of the Adrian Peterson game used jersey... doesn't seem to show any use what-so-ever.

"Little wear?" 2007? Would have to be one he wore in a ame he had few carries, there were a few like that in 2007 - 9, 11, 11, 12, 12 carries.

Hi
I am a big Peterson fan and saw this too. Seller cannot provide any type of COA, plus like Mvandor said look at his REAL Game jersey on NFL auctions and you will see he uses the elastic waist. The E-Bay auction says there is tagging in tact that says 4"LB (Which means 4 inches of extra length). If the jersey was game used and had the elastic waist it wouldn't be 4 inches longer and that tag wouldn't even be there.
It is a nice "Team Issued" jersey but I am 99% sure it isn't game worn. The starting price of $1000 is probably the max it is worth, so I wouldn't bid any higher. Just my 2 cents. Take it as you will

If it's not legit which it does not appear to be because of the lack of an elastic waist, it's no more than a pro-cut. How that values at $1,000 - even signed - I don't get, particularly if it's been beat up a bit to give it that "light game worn" look.

Seller's provenance story is of the "friend of a friend" variety too.

It is nice looking though if the sig can be verified.
