Rice spotted alone

A fan spotted Jerry Rice walking alone, probably coming back from picking up his mail at the end of his several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of March 21, 2026. Was he all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “He was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”

Is Jerry back on the market?

A rep for Jerry Rice was not immediately available for comment.

Truth or rumor, when news that the athlete was splitting hit the internet Sunday (March 22), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:

“Has anyone Jerry’s phone number?”

“So very sad… Those 2 were so great as a couple. So cute together.”

Based on the facts (Rice spotted alone with a cute sweater), is there trouble in paradise or is it much ado about nothing?
