Bobby Taylor, who played 9 seasons for the Philadelphia Eagles, played his first year in the last season of the Eagles' Kelly Green jerseys before they made the switch to Midnight Green

Ahh, '96 Collector's Choice. Right up there with '95 Topps and Fleer in peak-'90s-ness.

 

Incidentally, did the Eagles wait awhile to announce their uniform change, or did the card companies just release their stock early? Because you would think this would have their then-brand-new helmet next to his name at the bottom, not to mention their midnight green color.

They showed the new uniforms in early Feb 96.

The Atlanta Falcons' Mike Kenn, offensive tackle extraordinaire, while playing his whole career with the Falcons, spent the final final five seasons of his career in the "Falcons in Black" set. He's more associated with the red helmets/jerseys era of the 1970s/80s.

Cam Ward - Carolina Hurricanes (2017-18)

 

I'll make a case for Justin Williams in these as well (I personally see him as a Cane first, but he probably has 2-3 "right" teams.)

Keyshawn did kind of bounce around a bit but when I think of him it's in the Jets post 98 throwbacks

Also he's wearing his college number here

Keyshawn-Johnson-1996-Topps-430-Rookie-C

 

Just for fun, here's Keyshawn in the actual 1997 set:

Remember when Keyshawn brought WR numbers in the teens into the league and it was a really big deal, but then everyone started doing it?
