Now that the Super Bowl has concluded, let’s identify the potential roster turnover that could happen with the San Francisco 49ers this offseason, beginning with the unrestricted free agents

The following three players’ contracts are void this offseason:
EDGE Yetur Gross-Matos(28) – $9M
WR Jauan Jennings(29) – $5.94M
DT Jordan Elliott(29) $3.5M
The number in parentheses is the player’s age by Week 1 of 2026. The dollar figure for their average per year. Here are the unrestricted free agents:
LT Spencer
Burford (26) – $2.7M S Jason Pinnock (27) – $2.2M DT Kevin Givens (29) – $2.05M LB Luke Gifford (31) – $1.8M WR Kendrick Bourne (31) – $1.76M WR Skyy Moore (26) $1.6M LS Jon Weeks (40) $1.42M LG Ben Bartch (28) $1.33M RB Brian Robinson Jr. (27) – $1.2M P Thomas Morstead (40) – $1.2M LB Eric Kendricks (34) – $1.2M LB Curtis Robinson (28) – $1.17M WR Trent Taylor (32) – $1.17M K Eddy Pineiro (31) – $1.17M Edge Clelin Ferrell (29) – $1.17M RB Patrick Taylor (28) – $1.17M C Matt Hennessy (29) $1.15M LB Garrett Wallow (27) – $1.1M
The 49ers also have six restricted free agents, defined as players with three accrued seasons and an expired contract. One of the differences for restricted free agents is that their original team can offer them one of various qualifying offers, or tenders, that come with the Right of First Refusal and/or draft pick compensation.
Here are the RFAs on the roster:
EDGE Tarron Jackson (28) – $1M
TE Jake Tonges (27) $1.03M
EDGE Sam Okuayinonu (28) $1.03M
EDGE Robert Beal Jr. (27) – $1.03M
CB Chase Lucas (29) – $1.03M
DT Kalia Davis (28) $948,003
The 49ers have one exclusive rights free agent, which is any player with fewer than three accrued seasons and an expired contract. If the 49ers offer him a one-year contract at the league minimum, that player cannot negotiate with other teams.
The lone ERFA:
OT Austen Plesants (29) – $960,000
