During his time with the Washington Redskins from 1981 to 1989, Dexter Manley enjoyed quite a bit of success, picking up two Super Bowl rings and one Pro Bowl nomination along the way.
However, he eventually became entangled with cocaine use and after failing his third drug test, the NFL suspended him in 1989.
Upon reinstatement, he played four games for the Cardinals in 1990 and fourteen games for the Buccaneers in 1991.
Unfortunately, his struggles with cocaine continued and he retired in 1991 after failing his fourth drug test.
On the reverse side of his card, Pro Set first spoke of Manley's substance abuse violation but later replaced it with a cleaner (no pun intended), more kid-friendly version with no mention of drug abuse.
The substance abuse variation, being rarer, can be worth quite a bit in high grade.
A limited series of 15 unique most valuable 1990 pro set football cards. Love them or hate them, 1990 Pro Set football cards will always be known for the incredible amount of errors and variations scattered throughout the set.
To achieve its vision of being a "living set," the company was constantly updating, revising, removing, and replacing various cards.
While ambitious in spirt, that body of work ultimately resulted in one of the most notoriously variation-laden sets in hobby history.
