The Facts: Gore is meeting with the Miami Dolphins on Thursday.
Diehards Line:
The 34-year-old Gore was born in Miami and played at the University of Miami during college. Joining the Dolphins to close out his career could bring his journey full-circle. Since being drafted by the San Francisco 49es in 2005, Gore has been one of the most consistent runners in the NFL. He's surpassed the 1,000-yard mark in nine of his 13 NFL seasons, with more than 960 yards each of the past seven years. For his career, Gore has compiled 14,026 yards, 4.3 yards per carry, with 77 rushing TDs. He needs just 75 yards to pass Curtis Martin for fourth place on the NFL's all-time rushing list. And Gore remains productive. As NFL.com notes, running behind a porous Colts offensive line last season, the aging veteran continued to find creases and move the pile. The Dolphins have been checking out the veteran market for running backs, previously meeting with DeMarco Murray, in hopes to add a counterpart to pair with Kenyan Drake.
