Remember Ricardo Lockette, the former 49ers receiver who was buddies with Colin Kaepernick?
Lockette later won a Super Bowl with the Seattle Seahawks and retired in May after an in-game hit sent him to the hospital with broken vertebrae in his neck. His post Tuesday in The Players' Tribune attributed at least part of his inspiration in recovering to Marshawn Lynch."My goal in life is to have 10% of the effect that Marshawn has on people's lives," Lockette wrote.That sentiment has even more weight with Lockette's circumstances explained, as he does in the Tribune write-up. He recalled the moment when, while with the Dallas Cowboys, he was hit during a special teams play and couldn't feel anything.
