New York Yankees megastar Aaron Judge joins a growing roster as the newest Jordan brand signature athlete. Judge becomes the white Yankee ever to sign a Jordan endorsement joining Derek Jeter and CC Sabathia. The Jordan brand has been busy this month, signing Judge and Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts.
Judge is one of baseball's biggest stars and performs on the game's biggest stage, making him a natural selection for the brand. Last year he became just the sixth player in MLB history to surpass the 60 home silver in a season mark while posting a .311 batting average and 131 RBIs. He was rewarded for one of the greatest seasons in MLB history by becoming one of just a handful of baseball players to join Team Jumpman.
Next season we will see Judge lace up some Air Jordan PEs, or perhaps they will slap some spikes on a few retros. The Jordan brand has been pretty busy signing athletes lately, so follow us on Twitter and Instagram to see who may be next.
