Former NFL linebacker Jim Fahnhorst, a member of three Super Bowl-winning teams during his storied run with the San Francisco 49ers, died Wednesday. He was 66.

The 49ers announced Fahnhorst’s death Thursday, saying the franchise was left “deeply saddened by the passing.”

Fahnhorst recorded 232 tackles and seven interceptions in 82 games over seven seasons with the 49ers. He was in the starting lineup for 39 of those games.

For four seasons, Keith Fahnhorst formed a formidable duo with his younger brother, Jim. The elder Fahnhorst was a 49ers offensive lineman from 1974 to 1987. Keith spent 14 seasons with the 49ers.

He died in 2018. Keith was also 66 at the time of his death.
