  1. During that one off-season before Deion Sanders became a member of the Washington Redskins, he did a photo shoot for a video game company that was going to feature him on the cover of their product. At the time, no one knew which team he would play for, but it was down to about five teams. The video game company went ahead and had Sanders pose in each of the uniforms of the five potential suitors, with the plan to use the one of the team that he eventually would play for.

    I know that one of the photos that was taken of Sanders was of him in a Miami Dolphins uniform.

    Does anyone else know of the other team uniforms that he wore? Anyone ever SEE any of these? I remember vaguely that the photos were kept under tight wrap.

    Anyway, if this has already been discussed here (or elsewhere), or if I have some (or all) of the facts wrong, I humbly apologize. I already know that I don't post here as much as some of you, and I don't read every thread.

    What exactly are you talking about? What game was Sanders on around that time?

    I think you may be referencing the year he signed with the Cowboys. What i was able to find points to that

    After his public dispute with Jerry Rice and not feeling valued with 49ers, Deion with his agent Eugene Parker, proceeded to court numerous teams in need of an All-Pro cornerback. Several teams in the "Deion sweepstakes," as it was coined by the media that year, were the Philadelphia Eagles, Oakland Raiders, Miami Dolphins, and the Dallas Cowboys

    And I just found final confirmation of that with this pic

  2. Rich Gannon Redskins, Chiefs

    And Ronnie Lott with the Raiders always seemed weird to me

    Oh, and here's some old school stuff.

    Which uniform is the "right" one for Gannon then? If you mean Oakland then I dont quite get it. He was in the league 10 years (and 5 with the Vikings alone) before he even went to the Raiders. Yes thats where he had his most success, but it doesnt exactly fit to say those were wrong. (or maybe its just me)
