The 49ers also got a great contribution from backup Mac Jones last season. They went 5-3 in Jones' starts, including a win at the Rams. The 49ers were willing to trade Jones this offseason and Shanahan said after the first day of the NFL Draft that it 'really surprised me that no one came and offered something.'

STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

Jones' 5-3 backup record and trade interest highlight strong 49ers QB depth.

Jones provided great contribution as backup last season, going 5-3 in his starts including a win at the Rams. The 49ers were willing to trade him in the offseason and Shanahan expressed surprise that no one offered something for him in a quarterback-needy environment. The 49ers will enter the season with a strong 1-2 combination at quarterback with Jones as backup.
