Roofer unable to install soffits

I've been doing my research on roofing/attic spaces and decided that my house needed some kind of ventilation. Right now we have 1 gable vent and I wanted to install soffits and a ridge vent. I had a roofer out who told me that because we had a gable roof that there was nowhere to place the soffits. I know we have about a 3 foot overhang on our roof but that area isn't part of our attic. So I'm not sure if he was lying or was being honest in not being able to install soffits. I'm at a lost as to what I do now. Has anyone ever heard of this?
