CARD: Topps XFL 2020 ACQUIRED: IP 2023, San Antonio Brahmas v Houston Roughnecks
CAREER SNAPSHOT:
Ajene Harris displayed solid versatility for USC, playing DB, PR, and WR during his time at the school.
Over his last 3 years for the Trojans, he posted 144 total tackles, and 6 picks.
After spending training camp with the Eagles, Ajene joined the Houston Roughnecks in 2020.
As part of a gambling, dangerous secondary, Ajene posted 20 tackles.
He’d play for the Pittsburgh Maulers of the USFL in 2022 and post a tackle before returning again to the XFL.
Like an old glove, Ajene returned to the Roughnecks for 2023.
Picked on relentlessly by QBs Harris posted pretty good numbers on the outside.
He had 5 interceptions (league leader) for 15 yards, and 31 total tackles.
After the XFL Roughnecks were dispersed, he was selected by the Arlington Renegades for the upcoming 2024 season.
NOTES:
Ajene came over and signed this lone card for me. He loved that I had the OG Roughnecks jersey on, and told me that I needed to get a jersey of him next. He and I talked briefly about 2020, when the Roughnecks went into Arlington and pummeled the Renegades at home. We had a good laugh as he signed the card, and I told him he almost gave me a heart attack by giving up a few big plays that led to the OT effort by the Brahmas that weekend.
Gary had some great cards from back in the day. The Razorback stuck around just long enough to get into Pro Set, Action Packed, and Gameday sets, as well as Skybox. He had some really great action shots too. -It had been roughly 5 or 6 years since I had gotten him last so I had to come back and grab him on a few more.
Gary Plummer played junior college ball before transferring over to Cal where he played NT.
After going undrafted in 1983, played for the Oakland Invaders of the USFL.
The Invaders decided Plummer’s best fit would be at LB- a position he’d play for the remainder of his pro career.
Gary played in 53 USFL contests over his career, lodging 2 sacks, and 6 picks.
Still, Gary was not selected during the 1984 USFL Supplemental Player Draft, so he’d be a free agent after the league folded following the ’85 season.
Signed by the San Diego Chargers, Gary quickly became a starter for the team, as he had strong versatility at the position.
Over his career in the league, Gary started nearly every LB position in 3-4 or 4-3 alignments.
He played the next 8 seasons there in SD, racking up 792 tackles.
At the grand old age of 35, he signed with the 49ers in 1995.
After winning a Super Bowl against his former team, Plummer went on to play for the ‘9ers through the 1997 season.
Action Packed 1990, #237Skybox 1992, #113
NOTES:
A member of Tecmo Super Bowl, with some great cards, I thought it was fine time to add Gary to my collection. He has a very nice autograph. I really like the unique curvature of his signature, especially the ‘G’. I appreciate him taking the time to sign my cards, with apparently a pretty fresh sharpie.
