Frank Gore isn’t just another running back. He’s the exception to the rule. In a league where the average RB career barely lasts 2.5 years, Gore played 16 seasons, rushed for 16,000+ yards, and finished top 3 all-time in rushing yards. From tearing both ACLs in college, to being written off as “damaged goods,” to becoming the heart of the San Francisco 49ers and the definition of consistency in the NFL — this is the story of the Ironman who broke football’s system.
