Pro Football Hall of Famer Joe Montana was recovering Tuesday from injuries suffered in an ATV accident last weekend, KGO-TV reported. The Pro Football Hall of Famer required stitches above one eye.
Montana said he avoided serious injury when he crashed his all-terrain vehicle on his ranch near Calistoga, Calif.
But the incident forced the San Francisco 49ers legend to miss a planned business appearance Tuesday evening at the Santa Clara City Council.
His attorney, Robert Mezzetti, confirmed his absence from the meeting, where Montana was due to discuss the construction of a luxury hotel, restaurants and sports bars near to the proposed new 49ers stadium.
“Please forgive any inconvenience caused by this unexpected event,” Mezzetti said in a letter to Santa Clara mayor Jamie Matthews, the San Jose Mercury News reported. “I expect Mr. Montana will be able to appear in the near future.”
Matthews later estimated it would take a “few more weeks” before Montana appeared at the council, but added that he wanted the 55-year-old’s fans to know the former football star “is OK.”
“Mr. Montana, through his representatives, was very upset because he really wanted to be able to come, because he’s committed to this project,” Matthews said. “It’s from his vision and on his reputation that a proposal’s being made.”
