Scouts Said He Was Too Slow. He Became the Greatest Ever | Jerry Rice

1,549 catches. 22,895 yards. 208 touchdowns. No wide receiver in NFL history has ever come close — and no one ever may. Jerry Rice did not have the fastest 40-yard dash. What he had was something no scout could measure: he outworked everyone, every day, for twenty seasons. From catching bricks on his father's scaffolding in Crawford, Mississippi, to the famous Hill at Edgewood Park, to three Super Bowl rings with the San Francisco 49ers, this is the story of the greatest wide receiver who ever lived.
