Welcome back to GenX Classic Sports, the show where we relive the unforgettable moments, the legends, and the wild stories that shaped our generation’s sports memories.

On this episode of GenX Classic Sports, we’re diving into the career of Roger Craig — the San Francisco 49ers running back who changed the game in the 1980s. From his high-knee running style to becoming the first player ever to rack up 1,000 yards rushing and 1,000 yards receiving in the same season, Craig was the perfect weapon in Bill Walsh’s West Coast offense. 

We’ll revisit his Super Bowl heroics, his overlooked legacy, and why so many fans still believe he belongs in the Hall of Fame. 

If you grew up watching the 1980s pro football and the 49ers dynasty, this one’s for you.
