Gould is in the midst of his fourth season in San Francisco. His first two seasons with the club were solid, though the last two years have been tough for the veteran. In 2019, Gould hit just 74.2% of his field goals, which is a career-low. This season, he has hit 82.6% of his field goals, with his longest kick being 52 yards.

Before joining the 49ers, Gould spent time with the Chicago Bears and New York Giants. He went to college at Penn State.
