Overview
- Kyle Shanahan said the team would listen to offers but indicated he would be very surprised if Mac Jones was not with the 49ers next season.
- General manager John Lynch praised Jones’ impact on the locker room and stated the 49ers are a better team with him on the roster.
- Jones went 5–3 in eight starts in 2025 and posted career-best efficiency marks, including 69.6% completion and a 97.4 passer rating with 13 touchdowns and six interceptions.
- Jones is entering the final year of a two-year, $7 million contract with a $2.81 million 2026 base salary, giving San Francisco inexpensive quarterback depth and potential compensatory-pick upside if he departs next year.
- Trade speculation persists around quarterback-needy teams, with NFL insider Albert Breer floating the Vikings as a possible destination, though the 49ers’ stance suggests a move would require a strong offer.
