Re: Help with Wilbert Montgomery Jesrsy
The Eagles had extra jerseys of all of the players and the removal of nameplates was NOT that uncommon. I spoke to a couple of equipment guys during this era and they told me that the team was often asked for jerseys by Charities and for special events. If a jersey was indeed donated, the nameplate would be removed because the team owned the jersey and NOT the NOB.

Re: Help with Wilbert Montgomery Jesrsy
Given Wilbert's time with the Eagles (1977-84) and the mainstream use of that Russell tag design (1977/8-83), it would almost certainly at least have been made for Montgomery. And, as Jim mentioned, the removal of the NOB is not terribly unusual in that era.

Re: Help with Wilbert Montgomery Jesrsy
Thanks for the replies. It appears to me that Wilbert had his sleeves cut for game use. This is the Ebay picture. I found one picture that may show the sleeves not cut.
EBAY
Normal sleeves?
The others show cut sleeves.
