Piece of Super Bowl history coming to Lower Richland

Former Lower Richland standout Jonathan Goodwin will present his NFL Golden football to his alma mater Friday.

The ceremony will take place between the Lower Richland girls and boys basketball games against Keenan.

As part of the nationwide Super Bowl 50 celebration, the NFL started the Super Bowl High School Honor Roll program to acknowledge schools and communities that have directly influenced Super Bowl history and impacted the game for the better. More than 2,000 high schools and roughly 3,000 players and coaches will be recognized this season.

Goodwin, a fifth-round draft pick, played 13 seasons as an offensive lineman in the NFL for the New York Jets, San Francisco 49ers and New Orleans Saints from 2002-2014. He was a member of the Saints’ Super Bowl champion squad in 2009.
