On November 27, 1966, Sam Huff and the Redskins beat his former Giants teammates 72–41, in the highest-scoring game in league history. After an ankle injury in 1967 ended his streak of 150 straight games played, Huff retired in 1968. Vince Lombardi talked Huff out of retirement in 1969 when he was named Washington’s head coach. The Redskins went 7-5-2 and had their best season since 1955 (which kept Lombardi's record of never having coached a losing NFL team intact). Huff then retired for good after 14 seasons and 30 career interceptions. He was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1982.

This Washington Redskins throwback mini helmet was signed in gold by Huff and inscribed, "HOF 1982." This mini helmet includes a CSA autograph ticket and a Great Moments COA.
