Description
Driving Home: My Unforgettable Super Bowl Run breaks down Jerome's final professional football season game-by-game, culminating with victory at Super Bowl XL while providing an inside look at Jerome's relationships with teammates like Ben Roethlisberger and Hines Ward, his parents Gladys and John, and his daughter Jada. In what was to be the final season of his career, Jerome Bettis chose to keep a journal for the first time, and it was indeed serendipitous since it ended up being the most dramatic end to a Hall of Fame career with a Super Bowl win in his hometown of Detroit. This guidebook captures the fairytale ending to a remarkable career.
Author Biography

He is considered one of the best big backs ever due to his footwork and power, and is currently sixth on the National Football League's all-time rushing list. He retired in 2006 after a Super Bowl victory at Ford Field in Detroit, Michigan, his city of birth. Gladys and John Bettis are Jerome's parents.
