Can anybody help me out with this Andre Reed Pro Bowl jersey? While I don't pretend to think it is authentic, does anybody know if Andre wore #19 instead of his usual #83 in the Pro Bowl?
Thanks

Re: Andre Reed Pro Bowl jersey

I cannot answer your question about this particular jersey.

Just a note on Pro Bowl jerseys, they are the property of each player after the game. So unless the jersey can be traced directly to the player they probably are not the actual jersey used by them. There are a lot autographed Pro Bowl jerseys around.

This information came directly from a Pro Bowl player that I know.

Also, during the older pro bowl's in the early 1990's the NFl would not let players wear the same number (sterling sharpe had to wear #85 and Hardy Nickerson had to wear #54 once) Now they don't care and view the pro bowl not as seriously; the pro bowl jerseys are marketed now for retail sale, so there can be two #84 or whatever.

Thanks for the replies. A firend of mine who knows Andre personally, called him while I was standing there. He confirmed that he never wore #19 in the Pro Bowl.
Makes you wonder where this jersey came from?

I don't think the seller even knows what the jersey is.

Someone better call Willis Reed, just to be certain.
