As it turns out, Lawrence Taylor is not selling his Super Bowl XXV ring. His son is.

The ring Taylor earned after the 1990 season is being auctioned off by SCPAuctions.com, but the oft-troubled Hall of Fame linebacker is not the one seeking to cash in.

Taylor had given the ring to his son, T.J., and it was T.J. who put the ring up for auction, according to Jay Glazer of FOX Sports, who reported that Taylor was not even aware the ring was in auction.

Glazer on his Twitter account wrote that based on a conversation he had with Lawrence Taylor’s agent, Mark Lepselter, “LT wasn't aware at all that his son had put it up for auction. However, he had no problem with it [because] he feels they are now his son’s property.”

It looks as if T.J. will get some serious cash for his famous father’s Super Bowl ring, which was estimated to be valued between $75,000 and $100,000.
