After two grueling years of contract disputes during training camp sessions, the San Francisco 49ers have decided to play it safe this term. Locking in their star players early, they’re now in the clear for avoiding major contract disputes. The most recent news came as they signed All-Pro Fred Warner for a three-year extension, a decision that rocked the football world.
The $63 million deal not only gives the star linebacker a solid deal until the end of the 2029 season, but it also makes him the highest-paid off-ball linebacker in NFL history. The deal provides a guaranteed $56 million and is Warner’s third extension with the 49ers. This extension ensures San Francisco has a star-studded lineup when it’s time to head onto the field.
