Well the alternate orange jerseys have now been sold but when coming across a few other game used jerseys from the Dolphins I noticed something very strange! A Daunte Culpepper game worn jersey from 2007 . Thats weird! How did Daunte Culpepper wear a Dolphins jersey as a Raider? It is tagged for 07, plus the navy shadowing on the numbers is thinned out, (Which started in 2007). In 2006 the shadowing was a little thicker! See the pics below!

I'm totally guessing here, but is there any chance that Daunte was with the Dolphins in 2007 preseason? Again, I may well be wrong, but I'm just throwing it out there.

Culpepper was not officially released by the Dolphins until July 17, 2009. http://www.usatoday.com/sports/footb...released_N.htm
Being only a few weeks before the first pre-season game, the Dolphins' 2007 jerseys had probably already arrived (or at least been ordered). As long as NFL Auctions is not claiming that the jersey was game worn, there should not be a concern.
Hope this information is useful.

Thanks man! When the Dolphins do community events the players actually wear a screened on replica with no name on the back. Kinda weird to me, but I know in South Florida an authentic or game jersey sure would be hot in the sun! The post below was probably right. Ordered right before the preseason. Now I will probably e-mail NFL Auctions and request they change the listing. Although highly doubtful considering its already to a higher amount than I would pay for it!Comment

A serious typo in my previous post. I should have said that he was released July 17, 2007, not 2009.

Not sure if it is an "authentic" vs. a gamer they would wear to community events.
In baseball, I have noticed the players definitely wear the gamers out at community events as they don't generally tuck the jerseys in and I have seen the Set # and year tags.
In hockey, I know someone who was on a Geico commercial hockey shoot with the player, and it was definitely the gamer with a MEIGray tag in it
Getting back to the question at hand, I can't say for sure either way so maybe the NFL Auction people can give some clues.Comment
