According to the Los Angeles Times, one of professional football’s all-time greatest players is now downsizing.
Jerry Rice, arguably the greatest player in the history of the NFL has listed his three-story Atherton, California estate for $22 million dollars with Pierre Buljan of the Pierre Buljian Group/Cashin & Company of Burlingame.
Mr. Rice and his wife Jackie have decided to place the property on the market with their children headed for college.
Rice, the 16th pick of the 1985 NFL draft by the San Francisco 49′ers is the league’s all-time reception leader with 1,549 catches, 22,895 receiving yards and 209 total touchdowns.
Rice, who played for the 49ers, Raiders and Seahawks was a thirteen-time Pro Bowler and a member of the 1980′s & 1990′s All-Decade Teams.
