A clean, eye-appealing refractor parallel of an elite NFL defensive star, highly desirable for Browns team collectors and modern set builders.

Centering Assessment
Front appears reasonably well-centered, roughly 50/50 left to right with a slight heavy bias on the top border. Back is unverified.
Surface Condition
Near Mint; clean refractor finish with rainbow sheen, though minor handling marks or micro-scratches cannot be ruled out inside the penny sleeve without naked inspection.

Sharp corners visible through the sleeve, exhibiting minor rounding typical of fresh pack pulls.
Edge Condition
Clean edges with no visible chipping or major silver refractor flaking along the borders.
Print Quality
High-quality Topps Chrome stock with vibrant rainbow refractor reflection, crisp imagery, and clear typography.
Estimated Value
$5 to $15 raw based on comparable modern star refractor parallels.
Comparison to Known Examples

Authentication Tips
Check for authentic Topps Chrome chromium gloss, correct refractor rainbow sheen under direct light, and proper back-of-card licensing/copyright logos.
