Ex-Patriots LB Brandon Spikes' AFC title ring appears on eBay (Update)

A day after the New England Patriots received their Super Bowl rings, a former Patriot's ring is for sale.

The 2011 AFC championship ring of linebacker Brandon Spikes, who was recently released by the team after being cited in a hit-and-run accident, recently surfaced on eBay and was sold for $19,499.

According to ESPN's Adam Caplan, Spikes' representatives say the ring "was stolen."


Brandon Spikes' AFC Championship ring was not placed on eBay by Spikes, according to his reps.

Spikes was drafted by the Patriots in the second round in 2010 and spent the first four seasons of his career with the team. He then spent the 2014 season with the Buffalo Bills before re-signing with New England in May.
