Jerry Rice was on camera happily chilling out with his drink after Deebo Samuel’s bonkers TD and NFL fans loved it

In a big Monday night matchup, the 49ers got off to a blazing start over the division rival Rams. Even with Jimmy Garoppolo back as the permanent starter (for now), it seemed San Francisco could do no wrong.

Then, late in the first half, Deebo Samuel absolutely made seemingly every Rams defender look silly in the open field on an absurd touchdown, and the floodgates opened. One particular fan in attendance really appeared to love Samuel’s moves on his score. I’m talking about the NFL’s all-time leading receiver in most relevant statistics — 49ers legend Jerry Rice.

Once Samuel capped his awesome touchdown to give the 49ers a 14-6 lead, cameras panned to Rice happily sipping his drink out of a glass while pointing his hand — with a Super Bowl ring on it, mind you — at the field in approval:

Oh, yeah. That’s the GOAT wide receiver living his best life, watching his long-time team thrive with another terrific playmaker. And if you’re Samuel, there’s probably no one else’s approval that means more than Rice’s. Game recognize game.
