Jerick McKinnon, 27
Making a decision on McKinnon won’t be easy for the 49ers. They brought him in in 2018 on a handsome contract with the expectation he’d be one of the focal points of their offense. A torn ACL before that season, then further complications with that injury ahead of 2019 put him out for a second season in a row. There’s a chance the 49ers part ways with the running back and save themselves $4.55 million. However, they might also want to see what he can do if he’s healthy, and bring him back either outright or on a restructured deal. If the team believes he’s healthy, it’s easy to see them giving him a shot to be the player they wanted when they gave him $18 million guaranteed two offseasons ago.
