The winner will also get to meet Kraft at his office in Gillette Stadium.
Three years ago, New England engineered a record-breaking 25-point comeback against the Atlanta Falcons to capture its sixth Super Bowl title since Kraft took over the franchise in 1994.
The Patriots owner is now down to just four championship rings following the auction, as Russian President Vladimir Putin famously stole Kraft's Super Bowl XXXIX ring in 2005.
