Hines Ward chokes up once he realizes he's no longer the active leader in career receiving yards
Hines Ward and Derrick Mason had been the wide receivers with the most receiving yards in the league among active players. Both topped the 12,000 yard mark, and both subsequently retired this off-season. Who is the current active leader in receiving yards at the wide receiver position (Tony Gonzalez is the current leader among all players)?
Indianapolis Colt Reggie Wayne is the current active leader with 11,708 career receiving yards. Thanks to Pat in the comments, who looks to be better at trivia than me. The correct answer is Randy Moss, who missed the entire 2011 season but is signed with the San Francisco 49ers for this upcoming year.

At 39.4% over his career, I believe Jimmy Garoppolo is still No 1 All-time in the modern era (after Darryl Lamonica in 1960-70s) for players with at least 50 starts. Higher than Manning, higher...
Great story. I remember reading about O'Brien in a children's football book, and of course his namesake award. So much that's hard to imagine today, first of all, a 5'7" QB...
