The San Francisco 49ers decision to overhaul the front office and coaching staff has put talk of most any contract extension on hold for the time being. One player that impacts is safety Eric Reid.
A year ago, the 49ers exercised their fifth year option on him, covering the 2017 season. He is due a fully guaranteed salary of $5,676,000 this season, and then will be an unrestricted free agency next year. The 49ers do have the option of placing the franchise tag on him next year if they so choose.
On Tuesday, Reid met with the media before practice.
