Top Sports Trends of the Week

By: Lionel

NFLShop.com released their NFL rankings for jersey sales over the last year, and we wanted to see how closely they matched Fathead’s football rankings (also based on sales).  According to USA Today, the best selling jersey for an NFL player was Troy Polamalu’s.  In second was 2011 Super Bowl champion QB Aaron Rodgers, beating out 2010 Super Bowl champion QB Drew Brees, who sat in third place.  The next four places were also occupied by QBs, with Peyton Manning in fourth, Tim Tebow in fifth, Michael Vick in sixth, and Tom Brady in seventh on the list of NFL rankings.  Rounding out the top ten football rankings for jersey sales were Clay Matthews, Tony Romo, and Eli Manning, in eighth, ninth, and tenth place, respectively.

While many of the names are the same on the list of NFL rankings by Fathead sales for the last year (April 1, 2010 through March 31, 2011), there are a few notable differences between our football rankings and those based on jersey sales.
