Just when NFC West rivals could imagine the potential demise of the San Francisco 49ers, John Lynch was able to bring back Robert Saleh as their DC. Saleh is an outstanding teacher and motivator who commands the respect of every player on the roster.
And that’s not the only auspicious boost for the 49ers coming off their worst season since 2020.
Currently, they have $46.5M in cap space, which ranks #11 most in the NFL.
Yes, they may want to come to terms with QB Brock Purdy on a multi-year extension —- or they can wait for Purdy to finish out his 4th season to see if he bounces back from what was in some cases the most inconsistent season of his young career.
