One of the more fun thought experiments sports fans can do is remember how many teams a certain player was on, especially for legends. Superstars moving to multiple teams is far more common in basketball and baseball, but it does happen in the NFL as well.

Such is the case for inarguably the greatest wide receiver of all time, Jerry Rice. Although his legacy is firmly cemented as a San Francisco 49er, Rice did bounce around to two other teams at the end of his career. Starting in 2001, Rice went across the Bay to be a member of the Oakland Raiders, and even made it to Super Bowl XXXVII with them.

But his final bit of NFL action came as a member of the Seattle Seahawks. Rice was traded to Seattle only six games into the 2004 season where he played out his remaining games. Rice only caught three touchdowns as a member of the Seahawks, but he recorded his last one wearing Seattle’s steel blue and white,

Unfortunately, the Seahawks did ultimately lose that game to the New York Jets 37-14, but won their next two to claim an NFC West division title.

Rice will of course always be remembered for his legendary career in San Francisco. But it is still pretty neat the Seahawks were involved, albeit briefly, in his career’s story.

Interestingly, Rice seemed to kick off an unusual trend where Seattle became the final stop for Hall of Fame caliber wide receivers.
