49ers Eye Titans' Ridley Amidst WR Injuries
24 Sep
Summary
- 49ers signed Brandin Cooks to address receiver injuries.
- Calvin Ridley, age 31, is a potential trade target for the 49ers.
- San Francisco is also considering trade offers for backup QB Mac Jones.
The San Francisco 49ers are navigating a challenging season marked by wide receiver injuries. In response, the team has signed veteran free agent Brandin Cooks to bolster their receiving depth. While Cooks provides immediate support, questions linger about his current capabilities at age 33.
Further complicating the receiver situation, the 49ers are reportedly exploring trade options for Calvin Ridley of the Tennessee Titans. Ridley, 31, has had a decline in production, and his significant contract may be a hurdle. However, a change of scenery could be beneficial for the player.
In parallel, the 49ers are considering trade opportunities for backup quarterback Mac Jones. With Jones set to become a free agent after the season, the team is open to listening to offers, particularly if they can secure a valuable draft pick or player in return.
