San Francisco 49ers

Mike Krukow joined Murph & Mac Friday saying that exercising Matt Moore’s team option at the end of the year is a no-brainer for the Giants.

The San Francisco 49ers Friday announced a season-long lineup of gameday giveaway items for all fans who visit Levi’s Stadium for 49ers home games in 2017.

That’s the opinion of Daniel Jeremiah at NFL.com, who ranked Foster as not just the top defensive rookie heading into 2017, but the top rookie overall when posting his rankings on Thursday afternoon.

ESPN’s Adam Schefter joined Murph & Mac on Thursday morning, and was effusive in praising the new direction the 49ers organization is moving.

The four-time first-team All-Pro detailed his feelings in an interview with Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle, saying that he feels disrespected, and that when he’s healthy, he’s the best LB in the league.

It looks like the 49ers will open the 2017 season with both starting middle linebackers from last year’s NCAA National Championship Game on their roster.

The 49ers made their first waive of cuts on Friday as they begin to whittle their 90-man roster down to 53 by Saturday afternoon.

A fourth-round pick by the Eagles in 2013 after a standout college career with USC, getting beat out by Beathard is a significant setback for Barkley, who was coming off his best season as a pro with the Bears in 2016.

After injuring his knee on August 5, the 49ers were initially hopeful that 2016 first-round pick Joshua Garnett would be ready for the start of the regular season. That is no longer the case.

After the final preseason game vs. Los Angeles Chargers on Thursday evening, the San Francisco 49ers will have until 1 pm PT on Saturday to cut their roster from 90 players to 53, as they prepare for Week 1 of the regular season.
