GORE WILL BE HONORED AS NEWEST 49ERS HALL OF FAMER AT SEASON OPENER

The 49ers brought back Frank Gore two years ago on a one-day contract. He was hired last year to serve in the role of a football personnel adviser. In Week 1 of the regular season, Gore will be welcomed as the newest member of the 49ers’ Hall of Fame. The 49ers announced Thursday morning that Gore will be honored at the team’s prime-time season opener on Monday, Sept. 9, against the New York Jets at Levi’s Stadium.

"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 upon signing a one-day contract with the 49ers to retire as a member of the organization.
