Investigators determined that the lengthy ransom note was written on a pad of paper that belonged to the Ramsey family. His offseason workout regimen is renowned throughout the NFL, and often exceeded the abilities of those that tried to train with him, most notably Barry Sanders. The police did not find any signs of forced entry into the home. Rice's work ethic kept him in a state of sustained physical fitness unattainable for players with less discipline. The "official" cause of death was asphyxia by strangulation associated with craniocerebral trauma. Some speculate that Rice was reluctant to retire because of the threat that receivers such as Randy Moss, Terrell Owens, and Marvin Harrison posed to his many NFL records.

Darius Watts won the third receiver spot from Rice and receiver Charlie Adams appeared to have the fourth spot.

At 5:52AM on December 26, 1996, Patsy Ramsey (JonBenét's mother) telephoned 9-1-1. However, Rice had a mediocre preseason with the Broncos, perhaps due to a foot injury. .

The Seahawks temporarily unretired Largent's 80 for Rice with Largent's approval.

The family moved to Colorado when she was one year old. He wore #80 throughout his career, even though the Seahawks had retired that number in honor of Steve Largent, the Hall of Fame wide receiver who once held many of the receiving records that Rice later broke. The name is an amalgam of her father's first and middle names, John Bennett. He requested a trade to a team that would give him a more significant playing role; on October 18, 2004, Rice was traded to the Seattle Seahawks for a conditional seventh-round draft pick. JonBenét was born at Northside Hospital in Atlanta, Georgia. Rice only caught five passes for 67 yards without a touchdown in the first six games of the season, and his streak of consecutive games with a catch ended on September 19, 2004, against the Buffalo Bills. The tantalizing clues of the case have inspired numerous books and articles that attempt to solve the mystery. By 2004, Rice's role with the Raiders had diminished as the team became focused on developing their younger receivers.

The crime, which still remains unsolved, attracted intense nationwide media interest. Rice played in his fourth Super Bowl in January 2003, though the Raiders lost badly in a blowout to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. JonBenét Patricia Ramsey (August 6, 1990 – December 25, 1996) was a child beauty pageant queen who was found murdered in the basement of her family's home in Boulder, Colorado at the age of six the day after Christmas. He and Tim Brown formed a fearsome (if aged) tandem, eventually occupying the top two spots on the NFL's career receiving yardage list. Even at the age of 39, Rice continued to excel, having his 13th and 14th 1,000-yard receiving seasons and scoring his 200th touchdown in 2002. He was quickly picked up by the Oakland Raiders.

In 2001, the 49ers released Rice because of salary cap problems. Rice returned to Pro Bowl form in 1998, but then endured two modest years in 1999 and 2000, the 49ers' only losing seasons during Rice's tenure, as teammate Terrell Owens emerged as the team's top receiver. Following 11 consecutive Pro Bowl, 1,000-yard receiving seasons, Rice missed virtually the entire 1997 NFL season after he sustained a torn ACL in the 49ers' opening game. Those tandems led the 49ers to three championships in Super Bowls XXIII, XXIV and XXIX.

By the late 1980s, Rice had become one of the biggest receiving threats in the NFL, teaming with quarterback Joe Montana and later his successor Steve Young. The next season, he set the NFL record for touchdown receptions with 22, a feat even more astonishing considering the season was shortened due to a players' strike. Rice struggled early in his rookie season with the 49ers as he learned their innovative West Coast system, but in the 1986 season, he caught 86 passes and led the league in receiving yards (1,570) and receiving touchdowns (15). Despite Rice having attended an NCAA Division I-AA school, 49ers head coach and general manager Bill Walsh noticed his potential and extreme work ethic and drafted him as the 16th pick in the first round of the 1985 NFL draft, dismissing scouting reports that his prospect was too slow to play the pro game.

The school later named its football stadium Rice-Totten Stadium in honor of Rice and quarterback Willie Totten who threw Rice his many touchdown passes at Mississippi Valley State. That season he was named an AP All-American. In college, he had a total of 51 touchdown catches and averaged 10 catches per game in 1984, when Mississippi Valley State averaged over 59 points per game. He acquired the nickname World, because there wasn't a ball in the world he couldn't catch.

Rice attended Mississippi Valley State University, becoming a standout on the football team. Rice later recalled that working for his father also taught him "the meaning of hard work." His speed also helped him excel in football in high school. He developed his hands while working for his father by catching bricks that his brothers threw at him. Jerry Rice grew up in Crawford, Mississippi, the son of a brick mason.

. He also holds Super Bowl records for most career receptions (33), career receiving yards (589), career touchdown receptions (8), single game receptions (11), single game receiving yards (215), single game touchdown receptions (3, a feat he accomplished twice), career total points (48), single game points (18), and career total yards (604). Rice played in 29 postseason games, amassing 2,245 receiving yards and 22 touchdowns, both NFL records, along with 44 rushing yards. His postseason stats are equally high.

Rice also gained 645 rushing yards and 10 rushing touchdowns, an extremely large amount for a wide receiver. Rice is the only one of the top 25 scorers in NFL history who did not kick the football. In most cases, the next most prolific player isn't close; for example, he's 67 receiving touchdowns ahead of second place Cris Carter (who is also retired). Rice has scored the most touchdowns in NFL history (207), and holds virtually every significant career record for receivers, including receptions (1,549), yards receiving (22,895), all-purpose yards (23,540), touchdown receptions (197) and consecutive games with at least one catch (274).

He is the holder of 38 NFL records, a record in itself. He made the Denver Broncos roster in the summer of 2005, but he hung up his cleats shortly before the season began. He captured three Super Bowl rings as a wideout for the San Francisco 49ers, and also played briefly for the Oakland Raiders and Seattle Seahawks. Jerry Lee Rice (born October 13, 1962 in Starkville, Mississippi) is a former football wide receiver in the NFL, widely regarded as the best receiver to ever play the game, and arguably the greatest football player ever.
