🏈 Framed 35x39 Autographed Cris Carter Minnesota Vikings Signed Purple Football Jersey — JSA COA — Troy, Ohio — Ohio State University — Minnesota Vikings — Eight Pro Bowl Selections — Pro Football Hall of Fame 2013 — The Greatest Wide Receiver in Vikings History — 'All He Does Is Catch Touchdowns' — Signed Purple Vikings Jersey Framed 35x39 — James Spence Authentication Certificate of Authenticity

🏈 Cris Carter signed this Minnesota Vikings purple football jersey himself — a direct, in-person autograph from the wide receiver who spent the most important years of his career in purple and gold, who earned eight Pro Bowl invitations as a Viking, who retired as the second-most prolific pass-catcher in NFL history at the time of his final game, and who was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2013. Authenticated and certified by James Spence Authentication (JSA) and presented in a frame measuring 35 by 39 inches, the signed purple Vikings jersey is the collectible representation of a receiving career that gave the Minnesota franchise its most gifted hands at the wide receiver position. Condition: NOS.

🌟 Troy, Ohio — The Competition That Built a Hall of Famer

🌟 Cris Carter was born on November 25, 1965, in Troy, Ohio — a small city in Miami County in western Ohio, in the same competitive Ohio high school football culture that has produced an extraordinary number of NFL players across the decades. He played his college football at Ohio State — the Buckeyes, the program that sits at the center of Ohio football identity — and his time in Columbus established him as one of the most technically refined receivers in college football, a player whose route-running, hands, and sideline awareness gave NFL scouts a legitimate star in the making. The Philadelphia Eagles selected him in the 1987 supplemental draft, and after his release from Philadelphia, the Minnesota Vikings claimed him off waivers in 1990 — the acquisition that changed the trajectory of both the player and the franchise. Condition: NOS.

🏆 Minnesota Vikings — Twelve Seasons and a Purple Legacy

🏆 The partnership between Cris Carter and the Minnesota Vikings, from 1990 through 2001, produced the most prolific receiving career in franchise history. Carter led the Vikings in receptions for ten consecutive seasons (1991-2000), becoming the most reliable red-zone target any Vikings quarterback ever had. Across his full NFL career, Carter finished with 1,101 receptions, 13,899 yards, and 130 touchdown catches — the second-most receptions and second-most touchdown catches in NFL history at the time of his retirement. The 'Cris Carter rule' — the oft-cited cliche that a receiver must get both feet down in bounds for a catch to count — could as easily have been named for him, given how many times he demonstrated the sideline control that made the rule significant. Condition: NOS.

'All He Does Is Catch Touchdowns'

⭐ The line attributed to Vikings coach Dennis Green about Cris Carter — 'All he does is catch touchdowns' — captures the specific quality that made Carter so valuable to every offense he played in: his ability to find the end zone. His 130 career touchdown catches and his uncanny ability to make the contested catch in traffic at the back of the end zone made him the receiver that quarterbacks looked for when the score mattered more than the field position. The signed purple Vikings jersey, framed 35x39 with JSA COA, is the documented legacy of those touchdowns and those hands. Condition: NOS.
