It was a blast from the past at 49ers practice on Wednesday. Hall of Famers Steve Young and Jerry Rice made an appearance, stopping by to speak with the team about the “franchise’s legacy and culture.” The legendary pairing shared an embrace afterwards.

But Rice wasn’t ready to head home, instead sticking around to warm up with the team, and then run routes with the wide receivers. Let’s just say he didn’t look 54-years-old.
