Overview
- The trade deadline closed on Tuesday, Nov. 10, and Mac Jones remained on the 49ers’ roster after no deal was completed.
- Coach Kyle Shanahan confirmed multiple teams called about Jones in the final 48 hours before the deadline and said he was glad Jones is still with the team.
- Reports say the 49ers’ asking price exceeded what interested clubs were willing to pay, with the Minnesota Vikings among teams that inquired but did not reach a deal.
- Jones said he did not request a trade, expressed that he likes being in San Francisco, and pledged to stay ready to play without creating a distraction for starter Brock Purdy.
- Jones started eight games in 2025 when Purdy was injured and went 5-3, a track record that helps explain the 49ers’ insistence on keeping him and makes his 2027 free agency a key future storyline.
