Bryant Young is this year’s inductee to the 49ers’ Edward J.DeBartolo Sr. Hall of Fame, CEO Jed York announced Tuesday.
“You couldn’t ask for a better football player or a better human being than B.Y.,” York tweeted.
Young joined York later on a State-of-the-Franchise online show and appreciated the honor, well earned from his 1994-2007 tenure as a dominant defensive line and model pro.
Young, the 49ers’ 1994 first-round draft pick from Notre Dame, played his entire career with the 49ers. He won the 49ers’ prestigious Len Eshmont Award eight times and was a Pro Football Hall of Fame finalist this year.
