Throughout the history of American sports, no other brand has been associated with a league longer than Wilson has been with the NFL. Not only has every point scored in the NFL been with a Wilson football, but every Wilson NFL game ball has been handcrafted in Ada, OH by skilled craftsmen and women for decades. The NFL "The Duke" football was named in honor of the pioneering legend of the game and owner of the NY Giants, Wellington Mara. Back when Mara was a young boy watching the game from the sidelines, the Giants' players nicknamed him "The Duke" and years later, the NFL ball also took on this moniker. Bring home "The Duke" today, which is as close as a fan can get to the authentic on-field icon that has been thrown, caught, and carried by the game's greatest since the NFL's inception in 1941.
