Why Did FRANK GORE JR Go UNDRAFTED & Whats Next? (His Crazy Story)

Everyone knows about Frank Gore, the NFL Hall of Fame running back, but did you know he had a son who was a college football star as well? After dominating at Southern Miss for 4 years, Gore went on to the 2024 NFL draft, but ended up going undrafted to the Bills. Today, I want to go back in time and tell the story of Frank Gore Jr, how this all happened and whats next after going undrafted, enjoy!

[@ScottFisherCFB]

After the fact I realized this video was more of a "rise of" video than a what happened, but hope you still enjoyed! I grew up watching Gore, crazy his son is now in the NFL!

[@DevoGaming93]

I swear these days you check a roster, some guy who played in the mid 2000's, early 2010's, has a son on it. I love it.

[@kingarcy36]

They hate former players kids seen it not one got respect yet

[@crackaillesthaann6232]

Frank gore lives right by me he is a great guy..See him all the time..wish his son all the best…

[@GODSSON2000]

IMO the way the league devalues rbs is the only reason he didn't get drafted. His name alone should've gotten him selected!

[@DevoGaming93]

I really do NOT understand why this kid wasn't drafted. His production speaks for itself. Must be his measurables, or lack thereof?

[@joshuafinn6038]

Agree. This is an NFL level running back. If I had to guess, maybe total touchdowns were a bit low after putting up those big yards at the G5 level. But you're right. This kid is gonna make a roster somewhere.

[@_SayitAintSo]

him going to Southern Miss may be a factor

[@Marcmadness99]

Deion Sanders say is not about the player it's about the school and the teams record. And I think Choosing Southern Miss is why he wasn't picked.

[@troysprings9113]

I watched his highlights his not explosive and he don't really break tackles I watched him and seen nothing special

[@stebo5562]

Several great running backs have been undrafted. He can still end up being really good in the NFL

[@kyeduren5233]

Frank Gore Sr was once at the third string spot on the depth chart with niners too. So you really never know what can happen

[@impalafamily]

He was the third string coming off of multiple knee surgeries.....

[@ghostwalker89]

Gore was never a traits guy himself. If he has his father's unbelievable health and willpower, he will succeed.

underrated

[@sak7785]

He played until he was 37…

[@moemonte88]

@@sak7785for a running back?? Dosent matter even makes it more impressive.. look at his yards for carry that’s all that matters

[@sak7785]

@@moemonte88 the point is when you play 16 years you’re going to be pretty high up on some career stats lists.

[@moemonte88]

@@sak7785 yeah but when your yards per carry is a 4.3 it’s irrelevant his age. If it was a low 2 then you have a argument but he’s been playing at a high level for that many years in a position where it’s almost impossible to do anymore

[@babydrippa]

The RB market crash is what went wrong. There is a reason no RB was drafted in the 1st 2 rounds this year. There are way too many RBs that are serviceable, it makes sence to prioritize literally any other position more than RB. Easier to sign a good RB than to sign a good kicker.

[@SaltwaterBoogeyman]

Bingo .

[@tonycrabtree3416]

I watched Gore Jr personally keep USM in the game against UTSA.

[@CommanderLuke-zm8ri]

Lots of RB's go undrafted

[@darrinrobinson9508]

He’s gonna be just like his father the man has the DNA to be one of the best running back in the lead just like his father Buffalo got a great great running back

[@MOMMIES_BASEMENT.SINCE.1992]

And they'll find a way to rationalize cutting him. Then he'll go to one their division rivals and become a mediocre RB but only have big games against the bills. #TheBillsAreTheBills

[@Snappynappybullpen]

Ty Johnson is a pretty solid RB3, I don’t think the path to roster is nearly as certain as you do, barring an injury AND a decision to not sign anyone which they would

[@lancelindqvist8848]

gore will make a roster. Maybe not the Bills but a roster

[@pokemaster10001]

Update, he made the bills

[@leo29hornsfan]

@@pokemaster10001update I hope so. He became a Bills fan when his dad signed with Buffalo and he fell in love with the city and the atmosphere of Bills tailgating and being at highmark stadium as a kid. Now his dreams are coming true.

[@hughmungus2589]

not sure why this needed to be a NINE MINUTE video, that neither addressed why he didn't get drafted and whats actually next for him. Gore Jr. was a tremendous runner for So. Miss and exciting to watch. He could absolutely develop into an NFL running back if given much of a chance. He likely would dominate at the UFL level.

[@bodavis1600]

Great commentary!! Good luck Jr 👍

[@michaeljohnson2000]

Cowboys need him

[@Proper49er]

FG3 should have been a legacy Niner. A problem is our cap space and SB window. Hopefully we can pick him up later. If not, his career will be based on his talent. I just wish he had McCaffrey as a teammate.

[@seanlightfoot4795]

He only went undrafted because he played for southern miss

[@Rudeassbrian]

He should have hit the portal and went to Deion or Miami

[@HorchataImpact]

Cant imagine to have a dream/goal that all these high school/college athletes have of putting in the amount of dedication since childhood to not achieve this dream

[@SwampusMcGarniglus]

I think he stays on the practice squad if he doesnt wow people off jump street.

[@DubTuck002]

If RBs don’t get drafted by rd 3, it’s best to go undrafted. He could make more and pick his team

[@Road2Riches1010]

He went undrafted bc the NFL don’t wanna pay RBs, but he is a for SURE Roster lock and if not I hope he comes to Cincinnati who has a revamped oline who starters alone weighs 1.7 thousand pounds total, and 3/5 have Super Bowl exp. And depth on the bench, I know they would rather have Gore on a rookie contract putting up the same numbers as Zach moss who to me is STILL UNPROVEN

Am huge fan of frank Gore Sr so am very happy as bills fan that sign I think he 2nd rb also Frank Gore Sr played for bills

[@Submersed24]

Honestly a little lost why Frnak gore went undrafted. There are plenty of mediocre runningbacks and Frank gore has his fathers name attached to him

[@_DB.COOPER]

Smarts, it’s really that simple…

With all the physical attributes and with the recognizable last name Gore, the only thing I can think of is character issues.
