49ers free agency rumors: Tracking 49ers rumors, signings, departures, trades

The San Francisco 49ers head into free agency in a bit of a unique spot. They've got answers at a lot of positions, but their quarterback situation is a tough nut to crack. They invested significant draft capital in trading up to acquire Trey Lance, but a broken ankle cut short his 2022 campaign. They went through two more quarterbacks and head into the 2023 offseason with two potential starters in Lance and Brock Purdy that both face significant questions.

2022 in review

The 49ers earned their second straight berth in the NFC Championship Game, but once again had a disappointing finish. Last year, they blew a ten-point lead to the Rams in a winnable game. This year, they lost Purdy and Josh Johnson to injuries during the game and were left effectively without a quarterback in a drubbing at the hands of the Eagles.

They come out of the season with some free agency questions and notable names due to hit the market, but they remain firmly in their championship window. They'll likely be focused as much on retaining their own talent as adding veteran help. One big question is Purdy's recovery timeline following surgery, and if that opens the door to adding a veteran QB. With no draft picks until the third round compensation picks, free agency is where they'll do most of their work.
