SCP Auctions announced Monday that it will auction off a Texas A&M jersey worn by Johnny Manziel for each of his six home games during his 2012 Heisman season.

According to Dan Imler, vice president of SCP Auctions, the jersey is expected to fetch a record return, estimated at around $100,000.

"This is his only game-used jersey from his college career that has come to market," Imler said, via ESPN.

Imler believes that Manziel's polarizing nature will only serve to fuel the bidding.

"It has been a long time since we've seen a player as polarizing as Johnny Football," Imler said. "He has got an electrifying personality and everyone is either rooting for or against him."

The back of the jersey is autographed by Manziel in metallic silver pen, and his stats form his Heisman-winning season are noted as well.

The auction will take place online from Aug. 6 through Aug. 23.
