5 free agents 49ers may target in 2020

The 49ers have options if they can’t bring back key free agents in 2020.

WR Tajae Sharpe, Titans

A foot injury in 2017 sidelined Sharpe for all of his second season after a strong showing his rookie year. Since then he hasn’t been able to build on a good first year where he had 41 catches for 522 yards – both still career highs. In three seasons there, he posted 92 catches for 1,167 yards and eight touchdowns. With the Titans spending big-time draft capital on wide receivers Corey Davis and AJ Brown, it wouldn’t be a surprise to see them let Sharpe walk. A fresh start in San Francisco could allow Sharpe to carve out a consistent role as a third receiver if the 49ers encounter issues retooling their receiving corps next season.
