Pittsburgh Steelers Hall of Fame running back Franco Harris died Wednesday, just days before the 50th anniversary of the "Immaculate Reception," what many have called one of the greatest plays in NFL history.
The play happened in Harris' rookie year in 1972. Over his career, he would go on to win four Super Bowls over the course of a decade with the team — including being crowned the MVP of Super Bowl IX, the team's first championship — and be inducted into the Hall of Fame the first year he was eligible.
