AJ Francis is a free agent defensive lineman most recently playing for the New York Giants. He played his college football at the University of Maryland. During his five years there — which included a red-shirt season — Francis tallied 143 tackles, 9.5 sacks and four blocked kicks. Francis has also been a member of the Washington Redskins, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Seattle Seahawks, New England Patriots & Miami Dolphins.
As a senior, Francis moved outside to the end position — where he’d never played before — and responded with a stellar season. He led the Terrapins with three recovered fumbles and three blocked kicks. He tied for second on the team with four sacks and was third with nine tackles for losses.
On November 16th, 2015, Francis was acquired off waivers by the Seattle Seahawks. On November 24, he was released by the team, but signed to the practice squad two days later. On November 30th, 2015, he chose to be promoted to the active roster in Seattle over resigning with the Dolphins to their active roster. On March 8, 2016 Francis signed his one-year exclusive-rights tender deal to return to Seattle.
On October 12th, 2016 Francis signed with the Washington Redskins. He was promoted to the active roster on November 29, 2016. He was waived on December 10, 2016 and was re-signed back to the practice squad. Francis signed a futures contract with the Redskins on January 2nd, 2017. Francis played in 6 games in 2017 and recorded 18 tackles.
The featured white and gray under armour gloves were game worn by AJ Francis when the Miami Dolphins faced the Buffalo Bills on September 27th, 2015. Buffalo Bills quarterback Tyrod Taylor threw for 277 yards and three scores in his first NFL road start and the Buffalo Bills routed the Miami Dolphins 41-14. The Bills totaled 429 yards, intercepted Ryan Tannehill three times in the first half, and led 27-0 before Miami scored late in the third quarter.
It was the 1st official regular season game of AJ Francis’ young career. He also added his 1st NFL Tackle in the loss. The talented defensive lineman has signed the under armour gloves and added “Game Worn Vs Bills” in black. One of a kind item from the Fan Favorite!
