Greatest Pass Catchers

By Joe Tischler

Book Overview

On the gridiron, they were simply the best. From Jim Thorpe and Jerry Rice to Joe Montana and Rond Barber, NFL Hall of Famers brought unmatched passion and skill to their positions. Revisit football history's greatest professional athletes in this stat-filled, photo-driven sports series for middle-grade readers that showcases star linebackers, defensive linemen and backs, quarterbacks, pass catchers, and running backs. They're usually the fastest players on offense and the main targets for quarterbacks on passing plays. Although the gridiron has seen outstanding wide receivers throughout pro football history, only a handful of the greatest pass catchers have been enshrined in the Hall of Fame. Photo-driven and stat-filled, this middle-grade sports title for fans of the NFL showcases 11 wide receivers and tight ends, ranked by induction year, from Don Hutson and Jerry Rice to Randy Moss and Calvin Johnson. Includes sidebars about the position's role and how it's changed over time.
