The San Francisco 49ers are gearing up for a highly competitive roster battle ahead of the 2025 NFL season. According to 49ers general manager John Lynch, the team may have more 53-man roster spots up for grabs this year than ever before.
Quarterback is one position where the 49ers have certainty, with Brock Purdy and Mac Jones both considered locks to make the roster. However, the rest of the team's roster spots are wide open, with only 36 "locks" identified so far. This leaves 10 spots available for new players to earn a spot on the 49ers' 2025 squad.
The running back, wide receiver, and defensive line positions appear to be the most competitive, with several players vying for limited roster spots. The 49ers will have some tough decisions to make as they finalize their roster in the coming months, but the high level of competition should result in a talented and well-rounded team for the 2025 season.
