Just picked up a game worn Gerald Riggs jersey. Included in the package was a pair of pants and socks. I am not so sure the pants and socks were worn by Riggs but the jersey is awesome.

The jersey was made by Russell and is a size 46. The NOB had individual letters sewn onto a nameplate while the numbers, Falcons logos and sleeve stripes are heat-pressed. There are a few team repairs and the back #4 on the jersey has been signed by Riggs.

Great jersey; that era was always my favorite for the Falcons.

I don't think the pants or socks would have been worn by Riggs; during his tenure with the team (1982-1988) the pants stripes were reversed (outer stripes were red, the middle stripe was black) and the socks were plain.

Those pants are from 1989 or later (when the Falcons switched to black helmets and jerseys) and the socks appear to be from when they do throwbacks to the 1970s (maybe from the 1994 75th Anniversary home throwbacks).

John, the items came as a lot. The seller told me only the jersey was worn by Riggs. The other items were items he collected through the years. I also got a team-issued t-shirt that wasn't shown in the scan.
