If you’ve followed the NFL, you know who Frank Gore is.
Gore was one of the grittiest and most durable players this game has ever seen, a running back who never excelled with technique or finesse but whose unmatched hunger and determination made him find his way to the field over and over, and a future Hall of Famer.
Now, the Buffalo Bills are looking to keep the Gore name in the league.
According to Cameron Wolfe of the NFL Network, they’ve signed his son, Frank Gore Jr.

Gore Jr. is coming off four seasons playing at Southern Miss, logging 4,022 rushing yards and 26 scores with the Golden Eagles.
He’s a 5-foot-8, 201-pound runner who can also make an impact in the passing game and, just like his father, he’s great at finding running lanes with his vision and poise.
However, he’s not that explosive, which is why he was never touted as a high-end recruit.
The Bills finally committed to the running game last season, and while James Cook will handle most of the workload, he has the NFL pedigree and work ethic example to make his way to the field as well.
His father played for the Bills in 2019 in one of the final stages of his legendary career.
Frank Gore logged the third-most rushing yards in NFL history, running for over 16,000 yards.
