NFL star Tom Brady is running out of fingers for his Super Bowl rings.
He already has six Super Bowl rings from his time with the New England Patriots, but his seventh might just be the cherry on top.
More like the Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ signature flag logo carved from a red stone on top.
Per Robb Report, Brady and the rest of the Bucs received their Super Bowl LV rings last Thursday night in Florida in a private ceremony held for players, coaches, staff, and their families.
Specially designed by Jason Arasheben of ‘Jason of Beverly Hills’ and loaded with diamonds and sentimental details, they might just be the most stylish NFL championship rings yet.
With ideas contributed by the team’s front office, players, and even coaches, the impressive “pretty stick” (as Brady called it on Instagram) is the first the jeweller has crafted for an NFL team:
“We’ve done NBA rings, Soccer rings, MLB rings, and even World Series of Poker bracelets, but this was our first Super Bowl ring,” Arasheben told Robb Report.
“We didn’t just want to go big with carat weight to make a statement, like most companies would do. We needed to redefine what made a Super Bowl ring.
I’m so proud of my team for pushing the limits of design and incorporating more season storylines into this design than I think we have ever done. The Buccaneers wanted to defy tradition, and we did that together.”
Based on Leonard Fournette and Brady’s smiles, which are as gigantic as the ring, Jason clearly made quite the impression:

The ring is certainly elaborate:
Features 15 carats of white diamonds, along with 14 carats of yellow and white gold. In total there are 319 diamonds, meant to represent the team’s 31-9 victory over the Kansas City Chiefs last February.
The top features two Super Bowl trophies, representing the team’s NFL titles, and the Bucs’ signature flag logo carved from a red stone.
It was also personalised for each team member, with their team name and number added to the side:
Okay, now it is time to guess what’s inside this gold hunk…
Hint: the face twists off to reveal something that rhymes with ‘shmadium’.
Yup, inside is a hand-engraved three-dimensional replica of the team’s home, Tampa’s Raymond James Stadium, which was also the site of Super Bowl LV:
The cost of crafting the ring has not been made public, but you can safely assume it didn’t come cheap.
