“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. “I knew early on. That I wouldn’t let my college career define me in regard to injuries. Also, 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. Football was and is everything to me. From meetings. Also, 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. Proud of what I was able to accomplish and the legacy I leave behind.”
