Jerry Rice is widely regarded as one of the greatest wide receivers, if not the greatest, in the history of the NFL. After playing college football at Mississippi Valley State, Rice was drafted by the San Francisco 49ers with the 16th overall pick in the first round of the 1985 NFL Draft.
During his 16 seasons with the 49ers, Rice was instrumental in the team’s dynasty years, helping them secure three Super Bowl titles. His partnership with Montana and later with Steve Young produced one of the most successful offensive eras in NFL history.
Rice set numerous receiving records, many of which still stand today, including most career receptions, receiving yards, and total touchdowns. Rice’s work ethic and dedication to the game are legendary. He was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2010 in his first year of eligibility.
