Top selling NFL jerseys for September 2021 

The sale of NFL jerseys gives an idea of the popularity of the NFL and at times that of the players, too. Every season we see some evergreen favorites who rule the roost, and then there are some new players who swoop in and steal the limelight. For the most comprehensive breakdown of player popularity at any given point in time, monthly sales of NFL jerseys are the most reliable indicator. For the month of September 2021, we look at the NFL jerseys that sold the most.

NFL Jerseys sold in September 2021: The top 5

#1 - Tom Brady

The GOAT remains right at the top of the pile when it comes to the sale of NFL jerseys. The winningest player of all time definitely commands the most attention from NFL fans, and his is the highest selling jersey of September 2021. Historically, too, Tom Brady has been the player who has sold the most replica NFL jerseys. His continued elite performances have ensured that he remains right at the top.

#2 - Josh Allen

If Tom Brady is a fixture on the list, Josh Allen is a relative newcomer. After his elite season last year, when he finished just behind Aaron Rodgers, he has continued his form straight into the new season. The Buffalo Bills offense is purring and his performances are raking in the moolah in terms of jersey sales.

#3 - Mac Jones

For many years, New England Patriots fans never had to think of any new quarterback as long as Tom Brady was there. The fresh entry under center right now is Mac Jones. While his performance has been inconsistent as a rookie, there is no doubt that he has the hopes of a franchise upon him. So it's no surprise to see him feature so high up on the list of most-selling NFL jerseys.

#4 - Patrick Mahomes

Patrick Mahomes came top of the list of the best players when it was released ahead of this season and over the last two seasons he has set the NFL alight. He has won one Super Bowl and reached another, which is probably why his jersey remains in high demand.

#5 - CeeDee Lamb

The first non-quarterback on the list is CeeDee Lamb. It goes on to show how good and electrifying his performances have been. He is the next big hope for America's Team.

#6 - T.J. Watt

Topping the best of the rest is T.J. Watt, the only defensive player on this list of top NFL jerseys sold. It says something about his talent that he is ahead of all the other defensive players in the league in terms of popularity. He also beats out Ben Roethlisberger, the quarterback of his team. Watt is the most popular among his brothers, too.

#7 - Dak Prescott

Dak Prescott is back from injury this season and is playing better than ever. The only reason he might have slipped below his teammate Lamb in the sale of NFL jerseys is because he has been a more established player in the team and fans may already have his jerseys. That he is still maintaining his spot in the top 10 NFL jersey sales of September 2021, speaks of his enduring popularity.

#8 - George Kittle

A tight end on a team may not grab all the highlights on a regular basis but fans who know football are aware of the importance of the position. And the 49ers fans certainly are a knowledgeable bunch. That explains why George Kittle has been such a draw that he has shot all the way to the top 10 of the NFL jerseys sold in September 2021.

#9 - Justin Fields

Justin Fields is the new darling of Chicago. Even before the season began, Bears fans were clamoring for him to get the starting job. Yet Andy Dalton began the season as the starting quarterback. But then Dalton got injured and in came Justin Fields to usurped the position. His elevation to the top also contributed to his jersey being one of the most sold amongst all NFL jerseys.

#10 - Justin Herbert

If Justin Herbert has flown under the radar for too long, then he has definitely burst onto the scene this season. His performances have had pundits raving about him and declaring him, albeit prematurely, the league MVP. But he is certainly under consideration and his performances mean that suddenly the Los Angeles Chargers have become a serious threat. No wonder then that fans have thronged to buy his jerseys in September 2021.

The top NFL jerseys sold in September 2021 also point to the fact that quarterbacks remain the most influential position, not just on the pitch, but off it as well. Offense dominates the defense in popularity, and that is expected.
