Frank Gore to retire with the San Francisco 49ers
It is quite fitting that Frank Gore has decided to end his career at the place wherein he started. Moreover he’s in the right time to retire as he’s no longer able to play for a long stretch and didn’t feature at all last season.
Gore had said previously as well that he wanted to retire with the San Francisco 49ers. He has planned to sign a one day contract only for the retirement and is already in talks with Jed York to make the necessary requirements.
“Probably in a couple months,” Gore said in an interview with the TheSFNiners. “We’re still trying to figure out when I’m going to do my one-day contract, to sign, do my retirement. I told Jed York that I always wanted to be a Niner, so we’re working on that right now, and then we’re going to also sit down with me and my agent to talk about me working in the front office.
I love looking at talent, and I love evaluating talent, and I love ball. And they know that I know football players, what it’s supposed to take to be a football player.”
