Not much of a jersey guy but I found this Seahawks Jersey. Must be from 2007 with the tagging. All the numbers and nameplates have been removed but you can clearly see it used to have #83 on it.

So is this a Branch jersey? Are the numbers recycled and used for other jerseys then?

Thanks

In my opinion that is a Branch for sure. Size is correct and so is the custom elastic w
aist. Too bad it got stripped.

No way to know what happened to the numbers and lettering. Thrift store find?

Maybe used for cards? Dont they use nameplate, etc a lot? I remember seeing a few Plaxico Giants jerseys without nameplates and believe they were to card companies

Look at the NFL Shield. Its the newer one from 2008-2011.

Must have bene an 07 jersey reused for 08. Seahawks did alot of recycling.

I do as well. Love it for thrifting too. Have been to many places but Seattle keeps me going.

I agree completely. This week I am going to meet up with one of the Seahawks assistant equipment managers for a bulk purchase and will show him a picture of the Branch and see what he says.

Just to update this post.

I showed this picture to one of the assistant equipment managers. He confirmed that some jerseys get stripped down and it is quite possible this was one of them. Wish I had a definitive answer.
