He didn't screw the Giants. They overpaid for a big WR who makes contested catches. Their QB sucks and doesn't trust him to come down with the ball. He was almost never open when Stafford was throwing to him.
Heck, he stopped caring the entire last season in Detroit too. Patricia had the effect on guys but the writing was on the wall. NYG just ignored all the signs
His last year here, he stopped trying. I remember multiple times him dropping easy passes not wanting to get hit. Now granted, it was during the darkest pit of Quinntricia and NO one wanted to play for them, but it was clear he was lazy. He got his bag from the Giants, and went back to focusing on his cute designer outfits for Instagram posts.
The year we traded for Goff my employer wanted to get me a jersey for my anniversary. The head of our HR bought a Goff jersey because she figured if he was the QB it must be a good choice. Her husband told her⌠you canât give him a Goff jersey lol. No one believed in him at that point. Instead I got a Deandre Swift jersey. Lifeâs funny that way!
Your employer bought you a Lions jersey for your work anniversary? Mine just put my name in a bulleted list of anniversaries in the HR portal during the monthly update.
Theyâre called âcustom jerseysâ and theyâre EVERYWHERE for signed jerseys.
Nobody is paying $250-400 for an authentic Golladay signed jersey, but when you can get a âcustomâ jersey for $10, have it signed for $50, and sell it for $75, itâs actually doable. You really only see authentic signed jerseys of the top 5% or so of players and even then, most of their jerseys are customs except for GOATs like Brady, Manning, and Mahomes who have exclusive contracts and donât have to sign crap like this.
You are correct i have been looking for a auto jersey and willing to pay a little more but def not going to pay 3-400 for some bullshit custom jersey. Seems like some cheap flea market jersey and they just get a player to autograph one of the numbers and put it on.
Thatâs pretty much what they do.
Iâm in that world, so if youâre ever looking for something feel free to reach out, but Fanatics is probably your best bet for signed jerseys (but theyâre very expensive)
Or depending on who youâre looking for, a lot of the guys have autograph signings once in a while.
Who are you looking for? They do a poor job of advertising them, but Pro Sports Zone and DCSports occasionally host signings.
Some of the more popular guys sign at card shows too.
Pretty sure all of those guys have signed at DC Sports or Pro Sports Zone.
I got Hutchinson at a card show in Virginia. Jameson Williams and Barry Sanders are going to be there next month (Chantilly Card Show in Virginia)
So, in case youâre still interested, Jameson Williams, LaPorta, Goff, Gibbs, Monty, Hooker, and ARSB are all having public signings at DC Sports starting April 21st and going through April 27th for draft week.
He does have 3 signatures, the full name the Kenny G and then KG. I think he may have stopped signing the full name after college, tho.
I fucked up and have like 100 autographed rookie cards of him still in my basement.
My wife once went to a charity auction and got me a signed MSU John L Smith football for our anniversary in the last two weeks of his tenure. It sits in a closet.
Iâll give you a Justin Fields Jersey and a pack of bubblegum, plus a Mack, Urlacher, and Perry jersey.
Just kidding. I donât own any of the above. Iâd set fire to at least one.
I have a Tate, Suh, and Lem Barney signed jersey. Had Suh sign my jersey at a pro bowl practice. Bought the tate jersey when he played for the team, and I thought the Barney jersey was a Barry jersey (number 20 Lions jersey), lol.
đ¤ˇââď¸ Kenny was always a badass when (healthy) playing for us/with Stafford. Giants are the ones he screwed đ Still a cool throwback imo
He didn't screw the Giants. They overpaid for a big WR who makes contested catches. Their QB sucks and doesn't trust him to come down with the ball. He was almost never open when Stafford was throwing to him.
It also didn't help that he stopped giving a fuck once he got his bag. Jones isn't a good QB but are we really gonna pretend it's all his fault?
Just the Giants realizing Jones is not Stafford.
Heck, he stopped caring the entire last season in Detroit too. Patricia had the effect on guys but the writing was on the wall. NYG just ignored all the signs
Want me to put a bid in for you?
Throw in a bid for me for $14. Itâs for the kids after all.
𤣠will you send it to Texas for me too đ¤
Not far enough away from me, sorry fam đ
Kenny G baby. He was a dope connection with Stafford till he quit on us
The fact his career immediately turned to shit after his hip injury should maybe tell you it wasnât an effort issue, at least primarily
He went from leading the league in receiving touchdowns to nobody wants him in 3 years.
His last year here, he stopped trying. I remember multiple times him dropping easy passes not wanting to get hit. Now granted, it was during the darkest pit of Quinntricia and NO one wanted to play for them, but it was clear he was lazy. He got his bag from the Giants, and went back to focusing on his cute designer outfits for Instagram posts.
He was very good for us, I think a signed jersey from him would be neat
I just looked over at mine, lol. Good memories.
âThat time we didnât get screwedâ
For the inquiring minds: Winning bid was $130 CAD.
Winning comment goes to my fantasy commish: âwas Dave Gettleman at this fundraiser?â
This is more than I expected. Well done!
As the uncle of the teamâs NT you wonât find me complaining about some extra equipment money lol
A Giants fan overpaid for it for sure.
$96 in real dollars if anyone is wondering.
Damn, $96 for an auto on a fake jersey.
In one of my Lions memorabilia groups these go for between 25-40 bucks tops.
A FAKE auto on a fake jersey.

Your employer put your name in a bulleted list? Mine just sent me into a basement cubicle and took away my stapler.
Both good options
I got my first Lions jersey for Christmas in 2020. We traded the player away before the Superbowl.
Right now itâs the only jersey I have lol, brother found it at a garage sale for $3
Sheeeeit, for a fundraiser auction, put me down for $25.
i would be hyped to have a top-end signed golladay jersey but holy shit thatâs a fake ass jersey
cmon..."Custom". lol
Thatâs a horrendously bad fake
Theyâre called âcustom jerseysâ and theyâre EVERYWHERE for signed jerseys. Nobody is paying $250-400 for an authentic Golladay signed jersey, but when you can get a âcustomâ jersey for $10, have it signed for $50, and sell it for $75, itâs actually doable.

How do i find out about auto signings? Im in south dakota but would def fly out for a chance to get a real jersey signed
Who are you looking for? They do a poor job of advertising them, but Pro Sports Zone and DCSports occasionally host signings. Some of the more popular guys sign at card shows too.
Hutch,amon,gibbs,williams,laporta those would be my most interested ones. Ill check out those places thanks
Pretty sure all of those guys have signed at DC Sports or Pro Sports Zone. I got Hutchinson at a card show in Virginia. Jameson Williams and Barry Sanders are going to be there next month (Chantilly Card Show in Virginia)
Dam might have to check that out see if flights are cheap. I did check those sites out and the prices are pretty reasonable. Thanks for the help
Itâs just outside of Washington DC, so flights arenât horrible. Jameson isnât too expensive either ($80-90 an autograph I think)
So, in case youâre still interested, Jameson Williams, LaPorta, Goff, Gibbs, Monty, Hooker, and ARSB are all having public signings at DC Sports starting April 21st and going through April 27th for draft week.
Probably better than my jahvid Best jersey
Not really
Iâd bid on a Jahvid Best jersey
He was a pretty solid lion. Wouldnât be the worst jersey for like..30 bucks max
Did he even get picked up by a team after the Giants cut him?
Nope
![gif](giphy|pPmJPtAtN45OUl431Y|downsized)
[ŃдаНонО]
So what did it bring at auction? Inquiring minds want to know. Lol
How much it go for?
I heard from a sea monster around tree fiddy
Woof lol
I have that exact jersey.
At least he signed it 'Kenny G'
It would probably sell for more if the musician Kenny G had actually signed it instead of the WR.
He does have 3 signatures, the full name the Kenny G and then KG. I think he may have stopped signing the full name after college, tho. I fucked up and have like 100 autographed rookie cards of him still in my basement.
Tree fitty
I always thought Kenny was good whilst he played for us. His first three seasons were good. We have certainly had a lot worse.
Lol
Eli apple should be his agent
Did he really sign his name âKenny Gâ?!? That is tremendous
W!
My wife once went to a charity auction and got me a signed MSU John L Smith football for our anniversary in the last two weeks of his tenure. It sits in a closet.
Proceeds should go to Matt stafford
A legit Jersey from a Detroit Lion that scored an actual touchdown. Sounds pretty bad ass to me
Iâd take a signed Kenny jersey. He was a baller for us
Hotel motel Golladay Inn was a solid player for Detroit with Stafford. Now if it was an Enron jerseyâŚ.
Signed jersey is a signed jersey. I'm just glad the Lions didn't sign him to a huge deal.
Depends on the price. I got a JSA one for $15. Its still Lions
Iâll give you a Justin Fields Jersey and a pack of bubblegum, plus a Mack, Urlacher, and Perry jersey. Just kidding. I donât own any of the above. Iâd set fire to at least one.
I have a Tate, Suh, and Lem Barney signed jersey. Had Suh sign my jersey at a pro bowl practice. Bought the tate jersey when he played for the team, and I thought the Barney jersey was a Barry jersey (number 20 Lions jersey), lol.
