Do the 49ers still need help at wide receiver?
The San Francisco 49ers had a different style of offseason this year, focusing on getting younger and replenishing talent through the NFL Draft.
That approach led them to trade former All-Pro wide receiver Deebo Samuel to the Washington Commanders for a fifth-round pick, moving on from their star with one year left on his contract.
Now, they head into the 2025 season with a wide receiver corps led by Brandon Aiyuk, Ricky Pearsall, and Jauan Jennings. However, Aiyuk is still recovering from the torn ACL and MCL injuries he sustained back in October, raising questions about who will be the team’s starters.
