A high point in his career was his performance in the Jets' 16–7 win over the Baltimore Colts in the third Super Bowl in January 1969, before the AFL-NFL merger. Namath was named MVP of Super Bowl III, the win made him the first quarterback to start and win a national championship game in college, and to start and win a major professional league championship and a Super Bowl. The 1968 Colts were touted as "the greatest football team in history."
This New York Jets mini helmet was signed in blue by Namath and includes a Super Star Greeting hologram.
