Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk indicated that a trade for San Francisco 49ers quarterback Mac Jones could occur between Week 1 and the trade deadline after Week 9.

Jones is set to become a free agent in March 2027, which could impact trade considerations depending on his performance this season.
