Frank Gore signing one year deal with the New York Jets


Frank Gore continues his rounds as he signs with the New Jersey Jets. Gore is going to call MetLife stadium in New Jersey home in 2020, as he is being signed to take Carries away from Bell. Gore, who's 36, had a productive year rushing for 599 yards in 2019. 

Matthew Schmidt of clutchpoint gave his two cents, "While Gore’s production has clearly declined over the years, he has still been very durable, as he has missed just two games since 2011."

Gore is one the all time rushing leaders. Gore's stats may have slipped but so did his carries. When older backs have to split carries it always hurts their stats. Gore has been down 100 carries each of the last two seasons. 

Gore needs 1,379 yards to pass Sweet Feet Walter Peyton. It's doubtful Gore will get the Carries this up coming season but with the way Gore has been running, he could accomplish that by the End of the 2021 season. 

If Gore stays consistent and is allowed to play as long as he is being productive, Gore should pass Emmitt Smith as the all time rusher at the end if the 2024 season. Gore is racing father time and playing for Adam Gase is sure to slow him down.

Fans are getting to watch a special player in Gore, regardless of the team, appreciate him while you can. Backs like him are few and in between.
