Well, Adam Gase did say he wanted to lessen Le’Veon Bell’s load in 2020.
With that in mind, the Jets found a veteran backup on Tuesday. That would be the timeless Frank Gore, who is signing a one-year deal with New York, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
Gore, 36, is a familiar face for Gase. The two spent the 2018 season together in Miami and some additional time in San Francisco when Gase was a 49ers assistant.
The 2020 season will be Gore’s 16th in the NFL, while the Jets will be his fifth team. A third-round pick in 2005, he played 10 seasons by the bay before stops with the Colts, Dolphins, & Bills.
He has rushed for more than 15,000 yards and is three touchdowns shy of 100 total for his career
