49ers’ Mac Jones considered a trade option by NFL executives
Summary

Mac Jones, the 49ers quarterback, was the final player to address the media at a recent OTAs session, stating his commitment to the team while acknowledging he has not thrown due to shoulder soreness. NFL executives view him as a potential trade asset, especially if teams face quarterback injuries. Currently, the 49ers see Jones as a valuable option behind starter Brock Purdy, whose health will play a crucial role in any trade discussions, especially as the midseason trade deadline approaches. San Francisco is also exploring options to bolster their pass rush, potentially using Jones as part of a trade package if they pursue a higher-profile edge rusher.
