ALAMEDA, Calif. -- Despite a down year in 2017 -- a 6-10 finish after going 12-4 the previous season -- the Oakland Raiders still remained popular nationally.
At least when it came to jersey sales ... and moving other player-specific merchandise.
The Raiders had three players finish in the top 16 of the NFLPA’s year-end Top 50 Player Sales list from the period of March 1, 2017, to Feb. 28, 2018, with another Raider at No. 29 and a new Raider, in his old gear, at No. 31.
Sales rankings are for all officially licensed player products “as reported by the more than 70 NFLPA licensees,” not just jerseys.
