After a successful career with the New York Jets, Chad Pennington headed south to Miami and quarterbacked the Miami Dolphins to the 2008 NFC East Division Championship in what he called his “best season ever.” Overcoming devastating and career-threatening injuries, Pennington has emerged as a solid field general. In his first full season with the New York Jets, Pennington threw for more than 3,000 yards and 22 touchdowns, leading the team to their first AFC East title since 1998. Chad Pennington has hand signed hand signed this official 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.
