Frank Gore is officially calling it a career, and he will do so as a 49er after he signed a one-day contract with San Francisco and announced his retirement from the NFL
"One of the very first things I told the 49ers organization when they drafted me in 2005 was that they got the right guy,” Gore said in a statement. “I knew early on that I wouldn’t let my college career define me in regards to injuries, and that I would have to outwork a lot of people to get to where I wanted to be.
"After 10 years in San Francisco and 16 years in the NFL, I can confidently say that I put all I had into the game of football," he said."Football was and is everything to me. From meetings and film study to practice and just being in the locker room, all of it meant the world to me. I am happy to officially close this chapter of my life and proud of what I was able to accomplish and the legacy I leave behind.
Gore finishes as the NFL's all-time third leading rusher with 16,000 yards over 16 seasons, 10 of which he spent with San Francisco. Only Emmitt Smith and Walter Payton are ahead of him on that list. He also holds the league record for most games played as a running back .
