Barrows: Tashaun Gipson wants to play in 2023; will test free agency

The Athletic’s Matt Barrows reported that 49ers free agency safety Tashaun Gipson wants to play in 2023. Gipson will take part in free agency next week.

The Niners signed a safety at the end of August, and he wound up starting 20 games and went on to set a career-high in interceptions with five.

John Lynch said last week at the NFL Combine that the 49ers would welcome Gipson back. But can they do better? Perhaps the better question is: Can the team afford better?

Gipson gave the 49ers everything they were looking for, and them some.
