Each year, the NFLPA highlights 10 rookies and 10 veteran NFL players who they think have the best chance to break into the top-50 of total retail sales for officially licensed merchandise.
This year, former Michigan State football running back Kenneth Walker III, who is now with the Seattle Seahawks, made the list, coming in at No. 8 amongst rookies.
Rooks, you're up. Here's the #RisingStars we're predicting will have breakout seasons, gain fan support + land on the Top 50 list.
