Jerry Rice, the legendary NFL wide receiver, blew out on some reporters at the American Century Championship on Thursday. Rice, a Hall of Fame receiver, accosted two people who asked him questions on Super Bowl 2024.

He got into a violent argument with two journalists who approached him during Thursday's practice round of the American Century Celebrity Golf Tournament and shouted in their faces.

Jerry Rice confronted reporters

According to the footage acquired by TMZ, Rice was finishing off a practice round at the Lake Tahoe course when two Kansas City-based reporters asked him if he thought the Chiefs' wideouts were "good enough to win a Super Bowl." Rice appeared to take the question as an insult, and the video shows him lashing out at the reporters.

Rice is seen telling one of the reporters, "I will f*** you up." As security separated Rice and the two men, he walked away, adding, "If you want some, come get some."


Primarily, Rice ignored the question and moved away from the reporters. But a few seconds later, he realized he had something to say after all.

Rice told TMZ Sports that he assumed the reporters were mocking him because his 49ers fell to the Chiefs in the Super Bowl in February, and he said the reporters asked the question while smirking. "I'm going to defend the San Francisco 49ers," Rice told the media. "This is my history."
