San Francisco 49ers reporter Matt Barrows of The Athletic raised some eyebrows when he wrote for a mailbag published on Wednesday that the 49ers’ recent signing of quarterback Mac Jones to a two-year contract gave the club “a bit more leverage” regarding negotiations with current San Francisco starter Brock Purdy.

Even at 41, Aaron Rodgers had stalled the quarterback market.
