The first image is of a standing figure pointing left. The second is of a bearded head looking right-if this is not clear.

Not the best of shape, obviously!

Since no one else is responding I'll just leave you with the obvious guess you were probably leaning to anyway. Size and weight are fine for this and I kind of think I can believe those letters are what is to the right of Nike's wing.
