Rice was with the 49ers from 1985-2000 and became a legend while running routes for Joe Montana and Steve Young. He is a three-time Super Bowl champion and likely best WR of all time, and the sight of Rice immediately brings up memories of dominance in San Francisco.

Rice runs routes in a suit better than most can in a football uniform. He is a young 57 years old, and it is great to see him around the team decades after he left.
He can also give advice to current 49ers receivers that could give the group an edge in order to return to the Super Bowl for the first time since the 2012-13 season.
