No Market for Mac Jones Yet

According to The Athletic, a market has not yet emerged for Mac Jones, who serves as backup to 49ers starter Brock Purdy. With plenty of free-agent options available, quarterback-needy teams are more likely to consider players who can be acquired without losing a draft pick.

The 49ers signed Jones to a two-year deal last year, giving them control over his rights for 2026. While they claim not wanting to trade him, this is likely posturing. Jones is due to make only $3.25 million in 2026, but if traded and made a starter, he may seek a raise, adding complexity to any potential deal.
