Mike Tannenbaum, a former NFL general manager, recommended that the San Francisco 49ers should sign free-agent wide receiver Stefon Diggs before training camp. The 49ers added six receivers this offseason, including Mike Evans and De'Zhaun Stribling, but Tannenbaum believes that bringing in the veteran Diggs could enhance the team's passing attack. Diggs, 32, has been recognized as an All-Pro and would likely compete for a significant role alongside Evans and other receivers. The team's success depends on the health and performance of their receiving corps entering the 2026 season.
