Card: Donruss Rookies & Stars 2009 Dress for Success
Acquired: 2020, COMC
A beautiful card for a marginally over-designed set, I really appreciated the style during this period. I love how this design is set up with the smoke/paint on the right edge of the canvas. The patch is boxed in nicely by the main figure and the smoke, with the grid broken down into what feels like a 3 columns.

Glen was selected in the 3rd round of the draft by the San Fransisco 49ers. He’d back up durable Frank Gore at runningback his rookie year rushing for 226 yards on 83 carries, scoring a TD. In 2010, Glen abruptly retired- citing his heart wasn’t in the game.
He joined the military in 2013, and after concluding his service as a paratrooper, attempted a comeback with the Spring League in 2017.
