Ageless wonder Frank Gore to officially retire from the NFL with 49ers

All good things must come to an end. Frank Gore, who last played in the NFL as a 37-year-old in 2020, is finally hanging up his cleats for good. Gore will reportedly sign a one-day contract and retire as a member of the San Francisco 49ers on Thursday, according to the Mercury News.

Gore revealed in April he planned to sign a one-day contract with the 49ers and retire during the 2022 NFL offseason.

Gore walks away from football as the No. 3 all-time leading rusher in NFL history. Only Emmitt Smith and Walter Payton sit above Gore on the all-time list.
