The NFL Immaculate Grid has given fans one of the tougher connections to make among players. It asked about Super Bowl champions who've had a 1,000-yard rushing season in their career.
One name that stands out is the late Pittsburgh Steelers running back Franco Harris. Harris passed away at the age of 72 last December. The nine-time Pro Bowler spent 12 seasons with the Steelers and is the franchise's all-time leader in rushing yards with 11,950 yards.
More impressive, he had eight 1,000-yard rushing seasons as four of them came in all four seasons the Steelers won the Super Bowl in the 1970s.
Below are three other players who, like Franco Harris, have won a Super Bowl and have a 1,000-yard rushing season on their resume.
