In 1997, Green Bay Packers running back Dorsey Levens made his only career Pro Bowl. That season, he rushed 329 times for 1,435 yards and seven touchdowns. In addition, he had 53 receptions for 370 yards and five more touchdowns. In total, Levens had 1,805 all purpose yards and 12 touchdowns. Green Bay, of course, were the defending Super Bowl champions that year and made it to the Super Bowl again.
While participating in the Pro Bowl that year, Levens got to rub elbows with some of the greatest players to ever play the game. Knowing he was in the presence of elite company, he made the bold request of some of them for their game-worn helmets. With autographs. Amazingly, he was gifted these rare pieces of memorabilia.

I wonder how King Barry feels about Levens pimping out the gift he gave him, to the highest bidder?
