After providing what is arguably the worst single performance in the history of the NFL, third-string quarterback Rick Dockery becomes a national laughingstock. Cut by the Cleveland Browns, and shunned by every other team, Rick insists that his agent find a team that does need him . . .
A light-hearted story of football, food and love set amid the splendor of Italy, Playing for Pizza is a delightfully comic, deeply satisfying, deceptively charming story invigorated by appealing characters who learn to love their circumstances and the world around them.
“Score another one for Grisham. Playing for Pizza is a fish-out-of-water tale that perfectly suits his strengths as a storyteller.” -- USA Today
