Unbelievable Super Bowl Receiving Yard Records That Will Leave You Speechless!
Sanders’ 80-yard touchdown catch from Williams was tied for the longest reception in Super Bowl history with Kenny King of the Oakland Raiders. That record has since been eclipsed by Antonio Freeman, who caught an 81-yard bomb from Brett Favre of the Green Bay Packers. Muhsin Muhammad went four yards better in February of 2004 when he caught an 85-yarder from Jake Delhomme of the Carolina Panthers in a loss to the Patriots.

The 49ers, who had finished first in the NFC West with a 10-6 record, arrived in the Super Bowl after beating the Minnesota Vikings in the divisional round and the Chicago Bears in the conference championship game. They then beat the Bengals 20-16 in a thrilling Super Bowl XXIII in Miami, Florida. Rice was named MVP after catching 11 passes for 215 yards and a touchdown from Montana.
