To pay tribute to his former franchise, Gore took his Niners legacy to the ring. He wore white shorts with loads of logos on it. One of those logos was very familiar though, which was the impression of San Francisco 49ers. An impression he has worn for 10 seasons during his NFL career.

“I want to be in the front office with the San Francisco 49ers. I have a good relationship with the owner, with Paraag (Marathe), with the team,” Gore said earlier this month on the NFL Network’s “Good Morning Football.”

The two exchanged jabs on Dec. 18 in Tampa Bay, Fla. and unfortunately, Gore lost the battle. However, despite losing against Deron, Gore continued with his Niners spirit as he appreciated the battle instead of the outcome.
“It’s all good,” Gore said. “He won the fight tonight. He fought hard. I fought hard. I just still have to learn some stuff. He did a good job tonight. We’ll see if I fight again. I had fun tonight. I’ll go back and talk to my team to see what’s next.”
Frank Gore was drafted by the 49ers in the third round of the 2005 NFL Draft. Since that day, San Francisco become home to him and he spent the next ten years of his NFL career with the franchise. During that time, he rushed for more than 1,000 yards eight times. He is currently a free agent with five Pro Bowls to his name as a Niner.
His astounding decade with the Niners ended with 11,073 rushing yards and 64 rushing touchdowns. After his tenure with the 49ers, Gore played for the Indianapolis Colts, Miami Dolphins, Buffalo Bills and New York Jets. But the Niner spirit in him still lives on.
