The following is a list of the top 20 NFL jerseys based on sales from April 1 through August 28, 2009.
1. Brett Favre, Minnesota Vikings
Despite an inability to make up his mind about returning to the NFL, Brett Favre's Minnesota jersey was the top seller during the summer of 2009. A former hated rival, Favre is a sure-fire Hall of Famer who represents a major improvement at the quarterback position and hope for an NFL Championship.
2. Jay Cutler, Chicago Bears
Another star quarterback switching teams, Jay Cutler offers hope for a franchise that has had few competent signal callers throughout its history.
3. Troy Polamalu, Pittsburgh Steelers
Perhaps the most recognizable defensive player in the league, Troy Polamalu plays with a reckless abandon that ignites his teammates and his fans.
4. Michael Vick, Philadelphia Eagles
Considering his past legal troubles, it's surprising Michael Vick is on this list at all, let alone at No. 4. He apparently has a lot of support in his return.
5. Ben Roethlisberger, Pittsburgh Steelers
Quarterback of the reigning Super bowl champion Pittsburgh Steelers, Ben Roethlisberger already is sporting two Super Bowl rings.
6. Tony Romo, Dallas Cowboys
Even without starlet Jessica Simpson at his side, Tony Romo will remain popular. After all, he's the quarterback of the Dallas Cowboys.
7. Mark Sanchez, New York Jets
A hot rookie on an up-and-coming team, Sanchez has to be at or near the top of every Jets fan's wish list.
8. Tom Brady, New England Patriots
One of the best in the business, Tom Brady is annually among the best selling jerseys.
9. Adrian Peterson, Minnesota Vikings
The best pure runner in the game, Adrian Peterson's popularity extends far beyond the Minnesota Vikings fan base.
10. Eli Manning, New York Giants
Eli over Peyton? That's a bit surprising, although he does play in a much bigger market.
