The San Francisco 49ers will retire Dwight Clark’s jersey No. 87 during halftime of today’s game against the New Orleans Saints at Candlestick Park.

The ceremony will take place in the north end zone, where Clark made “The Catch,” a leaping grab of a Joe Montana pass that sparked the 49ers to a victory over the Dallas Cowboys in the 1981 NFC championship game and sent them to their first Super Bowl, against the Cincinnati Bengals.
