After taking the field in Week 15, Frank Gore has now played in 240 career games, the most by a running back in NFL history.
New York’s veteran running back passed Lorenzo Neal (239), who was more known for his work as a fullback.
From 1993-2009, Neal played for eight different teams, including a single-season stop with the Jets in 1997.
Gore joined the Jets for what could be his 16th and final season. Coming into Sunday’s game, Gore had 546 rushing yards on 150 carries, averaging just 3.6 yards per carry, which ties a career-low.
The eventual Hall of Famer is just 107 yards away of reaching 16,000 rushing yards for his career. Gore has three games, including Week 15’s matchup against the Rams, to do so
