The 49ers and linebacker Fred Warner are reportedly on the verge of agreeing to a new contract.
Warner’s camp and the team are very close to finalizing a multi-year contract extension, according to Jennifer Lee Chan of NBCSportsBayArea.com.
Warner said on Saturday that after tight end George Kittle and quarterback Brock Purdy got new deals this offseason, he feels good about the direction the 49ers are heading in with getting deals done now so that they can focus on football during football season.
“I think it’s obviously worked out really well being able to knock those things out earlier,” Warner said.
