This offseason has been a busy one for the San Francisco 49ers quarterback room, as the team watched Joshua Dobbs leave for a two-year, $8 million deal with the New England Patriots and Brandon Allen sign a one-year, $1.42 million contract with the Tennessee Titans.
San Francisco also gave starting quarterback Brock Purdy a five-year, $265 million extension after three strong years to start his career. However, with Dobbs and Allen out, the 49ers needed a backup for Purdy, and they landed on 2021 first-round pick Mac Jones.
Jones, 26, spent four seasons at Alabama, winning two national championships and earning both All-American and All-SEC honors once before the Patriots took him with pick No.
