Rourke's promise, coupled with Jones' expiring contract, could make the 49ers more motivated to deal Jones during the season than they were in the offseason. Jones is in the final year of his contract, and the 49ers could net a high-end 2027 draft pick for a player who is almost certain to sign elsewhere in free agency in March.

Jones' expiring contract and Rourke's emergence increase trade likelihood mid-season.

Jones is in the final year of his contract with the 49ers, and Rourke's strong debut coupled with Jones' expiring deal could make the 49ers more motivated to trade him during the season than they were in the offseason. The source projects the 49ers could net a high-end 2027 draft pick for Jones, who is 'almost certain to sign elsewhere in free agency in March.' Quarterback injuries are inevitable, making Jones a logical trade target for teams desperate to stay afloat without a starter.
