ATLANTA — Many of the players lucky enough to have a Super Bowl ring tell a similar tale.
They figured if they ever won one, they’d never put it away.
“I really believed prior to winning our first Super Bowl in 1992, if I ever was able to accomplish that, I’d wear the ring pretty much every day,” Troy Aikman, who has three rings from his time as Dallas Cowboys quarterback, said.
“I thought it was the best thing ever at that moment. Never once did I think, ‘I’m not going to ever wear this,'” Greg Jennings, who won one with the Green Bay Packers in Super Bowl XLV, said.
