He has set franchise records for most receptions and has produced more than 13,000 yards rushing and receiving in his career to date. Tiki Barber has hand signed this 2006 NFL ""Duke"" football. The ""Duke"" is the first re-branding of the NFL's official football since 1969. As of May 1, 2006, the ""Official NFL Game Ball"" became ""The Duke"" in honor of football legend Wellington ""Duke"" Mara. Mara, who passed away in October of 2005, at the age of 89, dedicated 81 years to the New York Giants as an administrator, owner and unwavering booster. In 1940, heeding the advice of influential team owners Tim Mara of the New York Giants and George Halas of the Chicago Bears, the NFL selected Wilson as the league's official football supplier. The following year, Wilson introduced a redesigned football and named it ""The Duke"" in honor of Mara's son, Wellington. The Duke stayed in play for nearly three decades until the NFL and AFL merged in 1969. A Steiner Sports Certificate of Authenticity is included. "
