Former San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick sold more jerseys in May than numerous NFL superstars, including Denver Broncos linebacker Von Miller, Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan and Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant.
NFL Shop released a list of last month's top-selling jerseys, which showed Kaepernick in 17th place despite his current free-agent status.
His extended stint without a team has been the source of much debate.
Kaepernick became one of sports' most polarizing figures last season when he kneeled for the United States national anthem before games, a choice other athletes soon followed.
