The San Francisco 49ers unveiled statues at Levi's Stadium depicting one of the greatest moments in team history, "The Catch." The iconic play took place against the Dallas Cowboys during the NFC Championship game following the 1981 season.
The statues featuring Niner greats Dwight Clark and Joe Montana made their debuts at Levi's Stadium during a 9 a.m. ceremony held at Levi's Stadium just about four hours before the 49ers' kickoff against the Los Angeles Rams.
The ceremony featured 49ers radio play-by-play announcer Ted Robinson, CEO Jed York, and Montana.
The 49ers live-streamed the unveiling via Facebook Live, which you can watch below.
