"Jon Weeks has re-signed on another one-year deal after earning Pro Bowl honors last season in his 49ers debut, following a 15-year tenure with the Houston Texans. He surely won't be the only player retained before hitting the open market, with free agency talks commencing at 9 a.m. next Monday and contracts ratifying as early as 1 p.m. Wednesday, March 11."
"The 49ers did not wield the franchise tag on any of their 20 players slated to become unrestricted free agents, and more could become available as last-minute salary-cap casualties. Headlining that list, at least from a high-cost standpoint, is wide receiver Jauan Jennings, who is looking to cash in after six years with the 49ers."
"Other major issues on the coming agenda: settling left tackle Trent Williams' lame-duck contract status, gauging quarterback Mac Jones' trade market and weighing the enormous cost of potential acquisitions, such as center Tyler Linderbaum and defensive end Trey Hendrickson, or an unlikely trade for the Raiders' Maxx Crosby."
The 49ers secured long snapper Jon Weeks on a one-year contract after his Pro Bowl season in his debut with the team. Jon Weeks previously spent 15 years with the Houston Texans. The 49ers did not apply franchise tags to any of their 20 unrestricted free agents, allowing them to enter the open market. Free agency begins Monday at 9 a.m., with contracts ratifying by Wednesday, March 11. Key players facing uncertain futures include wide receiver Jauan Jennings seeking a new deal after six years, left tackle Trent Williams with a lame-duck contract status, and quarterback Mac Jones potentially available for trade. The team also considers acquiring center Tyler Linderbaum, defensive end Trey Hendrickson, or Raiders defensive end Maxx Crosby.
