There was good speculation earlier this offseason the 49ers were going to lose veteran center Weston Richburg to retirement, which has now been confirmed.

It’s not yet official. But San Francisco 49ers center Weston Richburg is going to retire this offseason.

Earlier this offseason, and after Richburg missed all of 2020 with various injuries, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported there was “no timetable” for the veteran’s return, and it was likely Richburg “played his last down” with the Niners.
