Marquise Goodwin must put off Olympic dream, return to Bills

Marquise Goodwin knew making it to the Rio Olympics would be difficult, but he put mind over matter and attempted it anyway.

After the Bills wide receiver qualified for Sunday's long jump finals, he said it was his dream to win an Olympic gold medal and a Super Bowl ring. He said both "are very hard to attain," per ESPN. Goodwin, remember, represented America in the 2012 Olympics and has been a professional football player for three seasons.

His dreams are going to have to wait, however, as he finished seventh (27 feet, 3/4 inches) in Sunday's finals.
