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.
