The art of exchanging jerseys in the NFL

Some fortunate football fans will have an NFL jersey wrapped and tucked under their Christmas trees during the holiday season. Now imagine receiving a different NFL jersey every week, one that’s game worn and even autographed by your favorite player.

Win or lose, it’s basically Christmas every week for some NFL players. It’s a common sight to see players exchanging jerseys after games with either childhood friends, former college or NFL teammates or simply out of mutual respect. For the Washington Redskins, left tackle Trent Williams, wide receiver DeSean Jackson and safeties Dashon Goldson and Jeron Johnson are often among those swapping jerseys with opposing players after games.
