Jerry Rice in NFL History

Jerry Rice in NFL History

Jerry Rice (1962–) was the greatest wide receiver in football history, shattering every NFL receiving record over the course of his 20-year career with the San Francisco 49ers (1985–2000), Oakland Raiders (2001–2004), and Seattle Seahawks (2004). 

Rice, who won three Super Bowls with the 49ers, retired from the game at the age of 42 as the NFL's all-time leader in receptions, receiving yards, all-purpose yards, and touchdowns.

A 13-time Pro Bowl selection, Rice caught three touchdown passes in the Super Bowl on two separate occasions (in the 49ers' blowout wins in 1990 and 1995) and was named Super Bowl MVP after hauling in 11 passes for 215 yards and one touchdown in the more competitive 1989 championship game, a 20–16 San Francisco victory over Cincinnati.
