Rice Signs for 1 More Year with Denver

[Helpinghand]

Does this guy keep ticking, or what!

I guess he wants to see what MoC can do...

Seeing Rice's work ethic might be a good thing for MoC.

I'm sure they brought him in part to rub off on Ashley Lelie and Darius Watts also. You have to respect the fact that he still wants to work hard and still wants to play, and is willing to bust his ass to do it. I'm sure a little counciling of MoC is also in the works.

well only God knows if this will help MoC.. hopefully it does benefit him.

Maybe things have changed, but the last I heard was that Rice had to make the team and was not guaranteed a spot. Has that changed?

He is impressive...isn't he 42 years old?

 

[LloydSev]

well if he signed, I'd guess that means he's now guaranteed a spot on the team..

EDIT:

But with NFL contracts nowadays... who knows...

 

[Misanthrope]

I'm guessing Shanahan sees Rice as someone who might help him get more out of Lelie, Watts, as well as some RB named Clarett. If those guys can't get a clue watching JR work, they never will.

God bless him. I hated the bastard a decade (or so) ago when he was giving the Cowboys fits, but I can't help but respect the fact that he can still play the game - even if he's just average now - at 42. Hell, he's older than me!

Best of luck to him.

i wanna see rice break the 50 mark in age as a player in the NFL.

do you really think any NFL team would sign a 50 year old wide receiver? he's lucky to still have a contract at his age let alone 50, but it would be cool to see a skill position actually pull it off or have nuge tearing up the NFL til he's 50:)
