Yep, and he was the only one. No other receiver was crafty enough to figure out how to apply stickum to their gloves. Apparently, there will be a lot of receivers coming out to denounce his records and place in the HOF... and now his name will be a blight on the 49er, Raider, and Seahawk organizations...

I'm sure plenty of people did. Doesn't make it right. Plus - that jabroni was talking about deflategate like he thought he was above it. Another douchebag, hypocritical ex-Niner. Just stop talking, Jerry, you're not good at it.

Here's the actual rule:
The official rule is on page 34 of the NFL Rule Book, and reads that prohibited substances include: "Adhesive, Slippery Substances -- (i) Adhesive or slippery substances on the body, equipment, or uniform of any player; provided, however, that players may wear gloves with a tackified surface if such tacky substance does not adhere to the football or otherwise cause handling problems for players."
There might be a gray area here that Rice slips through.

This. Like Jerry said, it's not truly "illegal" if it is only on the gloves and does not adhere to the ball.
