Unknown (Attributed to Micah Parsons)
All-Pro NFL Linebacker · Football - NFL
Dallas Cowboys
Era
Modern Era - circa 2021-2023
Item Type
Apparel (likely a jersey or t-shirt)
Condition
Poor to Fair. The signature shows significant bleeding into the fabric fibers (feathering), and the photo quality is extremely blurry, obscuring fine details.
Rarity
Common. Parsons is an active signer at events and through official memorabilia partnerships.
Overall Assessment
This appears to be a legitimate 'in-person' signature by Micah Parsons on an apparel item, though the poor image quality and ink bleeding on fabric make it a 'Low Certainty' item without a third-party COA.
Authenticity Assessment
Uncertain - requires professional authentication. The image is significantly out of focus, making a definitive assessment based on pen pressure and flow impossible.
Signature Style
Abbreviated first name 'Micah' with a possible jersey number '#11' inscription below. Stylized script typical of modern athlete signatures on soft goods.
Signature Characteristics
Initial 'M' with high peaks followed by a condensed lowercase string; a distinct vertical stroke for the 'h'. The inscription below appears to be a '11', which is the signer's jersey number.
Ink & Medium
Black markers, likely a Sharpie or permanent felt-tip, on a grey heathered fabric medium.
Item Description
A grey cotton or polyester blend garment, possibly a fan-grade t-shirt or sweatshirt. Typical of 'in-person' signing sessions at training camps or fan events.
Estimated Value
$40 - $100 (Unauthenticated on apparel)
Comparison to Known Examples
The general shape matches Parsons' rushed 'in-person' signature style, though it lacks the precision of his 'sit-down' pack-certified autograph cards.
Authentication Tips
Look for the specific 'M' structure and the loop of the 'h'. For fabric signatures, check for ink consistency—forgeries on cloth often show 'hesitation marks' where the ink pools more than a natural fluid stroke.
Certification Recommendation
Beckett Authentication Services (BAS) or James Spence Authentication (JSA).
Red Flags
The heavy bleeding of the ink into the fabric can be used to hide poor penmanship or 'slow' forgery strokes. Extreme blurriness of the photo prevents verification of legitimate speed and pressure.
Provenance Notes
Valuable to know if this was obtained at a Cowboys training camp or a specific public appearance. Documentation like a photo of the athlete signing or an event ticket increases credibility.

Market Trends
