    49ers' Mac Jones: Resumes throwing

    Mac Jones, who dealt with a sore shoulder during the San Francisco 49ers' spring program, threw passes this week at Tight End University, an event hosted by teammate George Kittle (Achilles), David Lombardi of the San Francisco Standard reports.The fact that Jones was out there throwing this week suggests that Brock Purdy's top backup should be good to go come training camp. Though there was some speculation this offseason that Jones could be on the move, he'll remain a valuable insurance policy at QB for the 49ers, on the heels of a 2025 regular season in which Purdy missed eight games, all of which Jones started in his place.

    49ers' Mac Jones: Dealing with soreness

    Mac Jones (undisclosed) did not throw during practice Wednesday, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.Jones said Wednesday that he would be ready for training camp in July, so it doesn't seem like there's any major cause for concern. He should be considered the favorite to land San Francisco's backup job behind Brock Purdy in 2026.

    49ers' Mac Jones: Gets raise for 2026

    Mac Jones agreed to terms Wednesday on a contract restructure with the San Francisco 49ers that adds a $300,000 roster bonus for 2026, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.Jones' contract for 2026 now stands at $3.55 million with another $2.25 million in incentives, a justified increase in salary after he went 5-3 as a starter in Brock Purdy's stead last year while completing 69.6 percent of his passes with an average attempt distance of 7.4 YPA, both career-high marks. After the 2026 campaign, Jones will be positioned for free agency. Jones has proven an ability to thrive in head coach Kyle Shanahan's offense and stands as one of the top insurance options in fantasy formats that allow multiple starting QBs.

    49ers' Mac Jones: May stay with Niners

    San Francisco coach Kyle Shanahan said Wednesday that he expects Mac Jones to be with the San Francisco 49ers for 2026, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.General manager John Lynch also praised Jones but didn't comment on expectations for next season. Jones went 5-3 as a starter while completing 69.6 percent of his passes for 7.4 YPA, giving the 49ers a fantastic return on their investment in the first season of a two-year, $8.4 million contract. He probably won't be content to return to San Francisco as an underpaid backup, but his contract does give the team some leverage in discussions about a trade or raise.

    49ers' Mac Jones: Thrives as Purdy's backup in 2025

    Mac Jones finished the regular season completing 70 percent of his pass attempts for 2,151 yards, 13 touchdowns and six interceptions across 11 games.All of Jones' passing production came in eight spot-starts spanning Weeks 2-11 while San Francisco 49ers starter Brock Purdy recovered from a turf toe injury. The 26-year-old Jones thrived under head coach Kyle Shanahan in 2025, finishing with the highest completion rate (70 percent) and average attempt distance (7.4 YPA) of his career. Despite the backup's improved play, the coaching staff was steadfast in naming Purdy the starter once he was healthy enough to suit up. Jones remains under contract with San Francisco for the 2026 season, when he'll likely serve as one of the league's best insurance policies under center. The 2021 first-round pick won't have any value in fantasy drafts -- barring a catastrophic injury to Purdy this postseason -- but Jones' improved play makes him a reliable option to stream if he is asked to start at any point next year.

    49ers' Mac Jones: Drops back to backup role

    Mac Jones will return to a backup role due to teammate Brock Purdy (toe) being cleared to start Sunday's game against the Cardinals.Jones won five of eight starts, completing 69.6 percent of passes for 7.4 YPA, with 13 touchdowns and six interceptions. He didn't offer much on the ground -- 64 yards, no TDs -- and was thus merely adequate for fantasy, but his steady hand helped RB Christian McCaffrey put up points in bunches. Jones is signed through 2026, which means the San Francisco 49ers may field trade calls this offseason from QB-needy teams.

    49ers' Mac Jones: Strong fantasy performance Sunday

    Mac Jones completed 33 of 39 pass attempts for 319 yards, three touchdowns and one interception while gaining three yards on one rush attempt in Sunday's 42-26 loss to the Rams.Jones made another start under center for the injured Brock Purdy (toe), and the results were positive from a fantasy perspective. It was Jones' third spot-start in which he threw for more than 300 yards, and the second in which he recorded three touchdown passes. After the loss, head coach Kyle Shanahan hinted that Purdy could be ready to return in Week 11, which would put an end to Jones' run as a startable option in fantasy. Managers should hold until an official announcement is made ahead of next Sunday's tilt against the Cardinals, as Jones has been exceeding expectations as the San Francisco 49ers' starter.

Jones has done a nice job of guiding San Francisco's offense, but he doesn't offer much in the way of rushing stats and is looking at a tough matchup with the Rams defense this Sunday.

    49ers' Mac Jones: Accurate start in Week 9 win

    Mac Jones completed 19 of 24 passes for 235 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 34-24 win over the Giants. He added four rushing attempts for four yards and lost a fumble.Jones connected on all 14 of his first-half pass attempts for 143 yards, including touchdown passes of five yards to Christian McCaffrey and 11 yards to Jauan Jennings, but the quarterback lost a fumble in the final minute before halftime for the lone blemish of an otherwise spotless half. His first pass of the second half landed incomplete as Jones' accuracy diminished significantly, but the San Francisco 49ers maintained a double-digit lead the entire second half to improve to 6-3, including 5-2 in games started by Jones. Brock Purdy (toe) has been inching closer to returning, so Jones' run as the starter could come to a close in Week 10 against the Rams.

    49ers' Mac Jones: Getting another start

    Mac Jones will start Sunday's game at the Giants, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.Brock Purdy (toe) is listed as questionable, but he'll only be the backup if he's declared active, per San Francisco 49ers coach Kyle Shanahan.
