1969 New York Jets – Weeb Ewbank Pro Coach of Distinction Trophy

This item is from the collection of one of the foremost Joe Namath collectors in the world. His friendship with Joe since the beginning of his Jets career has led him to receive some amazing one-of-a-kind relics. Each piece hearkens back to an important NFL era. This one relays his important relationship with the New York Jets. 

After the 1969 season, Weeb Ewbank was named the AFL’s coach of the year after the season. The Jets had a 10-4 record and lost a divisional playoff game to the Kansas City Chiefs that season. In commemoration for his coach of the year award, the Touchdown Club of Columbus gave Weeb Ewbank an award. It is made from sterling silver (needs to be polished) and measures approx. 14″ tall.

Engraved on the trophy are the commemorative details: “Pro Coach of Distinction – WINNER OF BOTH – N.F.L. & A.F.L. – WEEB EWBANK – NEW YORK JETS – 1969 – Presented by Touchdown Club of Columbus”.
