Mac Jones' Price on Trade Market Described as "Astronomical"
A few teams have called the San Francisco 49ers about quarterback Mac Jones, but many interested teams around the league described the price as "astronomical," according to Dianna Russini of The Athletic. The 49ers don't have much incentive to move Jones, who filled in nicely with Brock Purdy missing plenty of time last year with a turf-toe injury. The 27-year-old went 5-3 as a starter while throwing for 2,151 yards, 13 touchdowns, and six interceptions in 11 total games played. The Niners signed Jones to a two-year, $8.4 million deal last offseason, so he has become an excellent value as the backup for the oft-injured Purdy. The 49ers will have to be blown away by a trade offer to even consider moving Jones as he heads into the final year of his deal. The former first-rounder in 2021 by the New England Patriots out of Alabama has become one of the more steady backup options in the NFL.
