Six plays after Ginn’s first return for a score, Jason Taylor put his name in the record book. The 13th-year defensive end scooped up a fumble at the Jets’ 48-yard-line and raced to the end zone. It marked the sixth fumble recovery for a touchdown in Taylor’s career. That total broke the mark held by Jessie Tuggle.

Kolb became the first QB in NFL history to pass for 300 yards in each of his first two career starts. and Jackson became the first player in NFL history with a 60+ yard TD in each of his team's first three games of a season. The jersey worn by Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Hines Ward in Week 3 arrived in Canton on Thursday. Ward, the team’s all-time leading receiver, hit the milestone of 10,000 receiving yards during that game against the Bengals in Cincinnati on Sept. 27, 2009. With a catch in the second quarter he became the 21st player in NFL history to have more than 800 catches and 10,000 yards. Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo passed this football to RB Marion Barber for a 5-yard gain on September 20, 2009. That play marked the first regular season play in the new Dallas Cowboys Stadium. This ball is from the Oct. 5, 2009 game between the Minnesota Vikings and Green Bay Packers. With the Vikings victory on Monday Night Football Brett Favre became the first QB to defeat all 32 modern-era NFL clubs. During Week 4 action New Orleans Saints Safety Darren Sharper became just the second player in history to record double-digit interception returns for scores. Only Hall of Famer Rod Woodson (12) has more interceptions returned for touchdowns. These are the gloves worn by Sharper on that historic day. Mark Sanchez of the new York Jets became the first rookie quarterback to start a season and win his first three games in NFL history. These are the shoes worn by Sanchez during Week 3 when the jets toppled the Tennessee Titans at home. Sanchez finished the day with 17 completions for 171 yards and two touchdowns. The football from Favre’s first snap in the Minnesota Vikings’ 27-13 win over the Detroit Lions in Week 2 arrived at the museum. As soon as the football was snapped on the game’s first offensive play, a handoff by Favre to running back Adrian Peterson for a five-yard gain, Favre set yet another NFL record. It marked the 271st consecutive start of his career. Although years ago he established the mark for starts by QB, the start in Detroit on Sept. 20 allowed him to surpass the 270 straight starts by former Vikings defensive end Jim Marshall whose ironman streak spanned from 1961 to 1979. The shoes worn by second-year runner, Chris Johnson, out of East Carolina during his historic performance in the Titans’ Week 2 game against the Houston Texans arrived at the museum. In that game Johnson became the first player in the 90-year history of the NFL to record a 90-plus yard rushing touchdown, a 50-plus yard rushing touchdown, and a 60-plus yard receiving touchdown in the same game. Kurt Warner set a new NFL record for single-game completion percentage during the Cardinals’ 31-17 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 2. He completed 24 of 26 passes for a 92.3% completion percentage that broke the previous mark held by Vinny Testaverde (91.3, 21 of 23) of the Cleveland Browns in a game against the Los Angeles Rams on Dec. 6, 1993.
