Eagles Legend Troy Vincent Auctions Final Game-Worn Jersey to Support Former Teammate Battling Parkinson’s Disease Philadelphia Pennsylvania – November 4, 2025 In a moment that has touched the hearts of Eagles fans everywhere, franchise legend Troy Vincent — the lockdown cornerback who defined Philadelphia’s secondary in the late ’90s and early 2000s — has auctioned off the game-worn jersey from his final NFL game to support a former teammate now fighting the toughest battle of his life: Parkinson’s disease. For nearly a decade, Vincent embodied everything the Eagles stood for — coverage, instinct, and heart. From 1996 to 2001, the five-time Pro Bowler and three-time All-Pro locked down receivers, amassed 28 interceptions, and became the emotional engine of Jim Johnson’s defense — a cornerstone of the team that reached the NFC Championship Game in 2001. Known simply as “The Enforcer,” he was the soul of the “No Fly Zone” that terrorized the NFL. That teammate now in need is Bobby Taylor, the veteran cornerback and defensive leader who spent 10 seasons in Philadelphia. Recently, Taylor has been privately battling early-stage Parkinson’s disease, a neurological condition that has begun to affect his motor function and coordination. Despite the diagnosis, Taylor continues to serve as an analyst, mentor, and community advocate — still embodying the same discipline and focus that made him an icon. “We fought side by side — shoulder to shoulder on the field, sharing every victory and every defeat. Today, he’s facing a battle no playbook can prepare you for. I can’t take the field for him, but I can let this jersey keep fighting — for him, for brotherhood, and for the belief that we never leave one another behind.” The jersey in question is the one Vincent wore during his farewell game at Lincoln Financial Field in 2006, a piece of Eagles history cherished by fans. The decision to part with it, he says, wasn’t sentimental — it was purposeful. All proceeds from the auction will go directly to the Eagles Alumni Health & Wellness Fund, which supports Taylor’s treatment and ongoing neurological research into Parkinson’s and other long-term health challenges faced by retired NFL players. “That jersey carried our pride, our pain, and our victories,” Vincent reflected. “If it can now carry hope for a brother who gave everything to this city, then it’s still doing its job.” For Eagles Nation, the gesture captures what makes Philadelphia’s legacy endure — a family bound by loyalty, forged through adversity, and united long after the final whistle. In Philadelphia, brotherhood isn’t just a memory — it’s a promise that never fades.
