Default Can anyone identify this auto card?

Found this in a box. The back of the card does not say who it is. Any help would be appreciated.

Quick with the draw lol. It would appear to be so though I can't find the exact same card.

Looks like a custom index card? Is there anything on the back?

I love it!

It clearly shows he's an NFL player with all the logos thrown around. It's important when you look at it to immediately know, "Hey, this is a football card!" The lack of borders symbolizes unlimited potential which spills off the card and almost onto the field. The field of dreams. The "empty" space suggests wide open receivers which the auto is partially blanketing. You know he'll find those empty receivers just by looking at the card.

Not custom I do not think. It is from like 90 or 91 pro set. Back when they had players sign on the backs of the cards.

Nah, I think Panini still has that distinction...
