The league will announce the remaining nine quarterbacks to make the NFL 100 All-Time Team on Friday.
The NFL 100 All-Time Team is made up of a roster of 100 players and 10 coaches deemed "the greatest" at their respective positions. NFL Network is unveiling the roster over six-weeks. A 26-person voting panel made up of coaches, team executives, former players, and members of the media are deciding who makes it onto the NFL 100 All-Time Team.
The 49ers made Montana a third-round draft pick in 1979, and he played for the team until 1992. During his NFL career, he won four Super Bowls (XVI, XIX, XXIII, XXIV), was named the Super Bowl MVP three times (XVI, XIX, XXIV), was selected to eight Pro Bowls (1981, 1983, 1984, 1985, 1987, 1989, 1990, 1993), and was a three-time first-team All-Pro (1987, 1989, 1990).
Montana passed for 40,551 yards and threw 273 touchdowns compared to 139 interceptions while completing 63.2 percent of his passes through 15 NFL seasons. He missed the 1991 season due to injury.
Montana finished his career playing two seasons (1993, 1994) with the Kansas City Chiefs.
Other former 49ers who have made the NFL 100 All-Time Team are defensive backs Ronnie Lott, Deion Sanders, and Rod Woodson, wide receiver Jerry Rice, and head coach Bill Walsh.
