Former Dallas Cowboys’ offensive lineman Erik Williams is selling his personal memorabilia collection including a Super Bowl ring, trophy and two game-worn jerseys. The auction is being conducted by Albersheims, a Las Vegas-based memorabilia company.
Highlights from the Erik Williams Collection include:
- 1992 Dallas Cowboys Super Bowl ring– the first of three championships from the 1990s Cowboys dynasty
- Game Worn Dallas Cowboys football helmets from Super Bowl XXVII & Super Bowl XXVIII
- Super Bowl XXX game worn Dallas Cowboys jersey
- Super Bowl XXVII trophy
- Football Helmets – game worn helmets received from other players including: Jerome Bettis, Michael Strahan, Cortez Kennedy and other stars
“As far as we know, this is the first 1992 Dallas Cowboys Super Bowl ring ever to come to public auction,” said company president Richard Albersheim. “At one time, Erik Williams was the highest paid offensive lineman in the NFL. He was the second highest paid Cowboy after Troy Aikman, until Deion Sanders surpassed that salary figure. Williams anchored the offensive line that helped guide America’s team to three Super Bowls. In the one year he was hurt and unable to play, Dallas missed the Super Bowl.”
