Frank Gore might be hanging up his pads, but he’s not done with football. After telling the SF Niners Podcast that he intends to retire after signing a one-day contract with the 49ers, he mentioned that he’d like to return to the club to work in the front office. CEO Jed York told Matt Barrows of the Athletic that he’s very much open to obliging the team’s all-time leading rusher.
“We’re gonna also sit down with me and my agent to talk about me working in the front office,” Gore said. “I love looking at talent. I love evaluating talent, and I love ball. And they know that I know football players, and what it’s supposed to take to be a football player.”
