Peerless Price
Peerless LeCross Price (born October 27, 1976) is an American former professional football player who was a wide receiver for nine seasons in the National Football League (NFL).
Price played college football for the Tennessee Volunteers and was selected by the Buffalo Bills in the second round of the 1999 NFL draft. Price also played for the Atlanta Falcons and Dallas Cowboys.
Born in Dayton, Ohio, Price's name was inspired by the name of a local moving company. His mother explained that he was given the name because she liked it, and also because she hoped that her son, growing up in a rough neighborhood, would avoid a life of crime.
Price was recruited heavily out of Meadowdale High School in Dayton. He was a high school All-American and was considered a major athlete when he enrolled at the University of Tennessee in 1995 because he was a three sport star in high school. Price played college football under head coach Phillip Fulmer.
As a freshman in the 1995 season, Price had six receptions for 71 receiving yards in a backup role in the Volunteers' 11–1 season.
During his 1996 sophomore campaign, Price recorded 32 receptions for three touchdowns and 609 yards in Tennessee's 10–2 season. He excelled in a 35–29 loss to the Florida Gators with seven receptions for 161 receiving yards and a receiving touchdown. In addition to gaining attention for his play on the field, Price was named to the Academic All-SEC team.
When Joey Kent left following the 1996 season, Price stepped into the starting lineup full-time as a junior, where Peyton Manning found Price to be a dependable target. In the 1997 season, he started every game and emerged as a legitimate deep threat. He finished with 48 receptions, netting 698 yards and six touchdowns and helped guide the Volunteers to an SEC Championship. He was, for the second consecutive year, named an Academic All-SEC pick.
After Marcus Nash graduated, Price stepped into the top spot on the Volunteers' receiving corps for the 1998 season. In a tight game against Alabama, Price tied a school record with a 100-yard kickoff return for a touchdown that sparked a Volunteers victory and continued their success. Tennessee finished the regular season 11–0 and faced Mississippi State in the SEC Championship Game. With the Vols trailing by four points in the fourth quarter, Price pulled in a pass over the shoulder for a 41-yard touchdown. Tennessee won the game by score of 24–14, and earned a spot in the Fiesta Bowl against Florida State to decide the national champion for the 1998 season.
