San Francisco 49ers legend and Hall of Famer Jimmy Johnson died Wednesday at the age of 86.
The Pro Football Hall of Fame announced his death and noted his family said he was "in declining health for some time."
The 49ers offered their condolences:
Johnson played offense and defense during his collegiate career at UCLA before the 49ers selected him with the No. 6 overall pick of the 1961 NFL draft. He ended up playing his entire career for San Francisco from 1961 through 1976.
He appeared in 213 regular-season games, primarily as a cornerback, and tallied 47 interceptions.
