Arik Armstead Doesn't Mind Franchise Tag
5 years agoSan Francisco 49ers defensive end Arik Armstead said he wouldn't mind if the team placed the franchise tag on him this offseason. "I would love being here. Trying to go back to the Super Bowl, so however that is seen or has to get done, it’s not really my decision what they want to do with me," Armstead said. The 26-year-old broke out in 2019 with 54 tackles (32 solo), a career-high 10 sacks, two forced fumbles and one fumble recovery while leading the Niners to a Super Bowl appearance. He'll certainly be on the IDP radar after his big season, and should remain productive if he stays in San Francisco in this strong defensive unit.
