Despite the upcoming NFL quarterback carousel, teams have not shown interest in trading for Mac Jones, according to The Athletic. With numerous free-agent options available and more expected as cuts are made, quarterback-needy teams are more likely to pursue players who don't require trading draft picks.
The 49ers hold full control over Jones's rights through 2026 after signing him to a two-year deal last year. While they claim they don't want to trade him, that stance may change for the right price. Jones is set to make $3.25 million in 2026, which could complicate any trade if a team wants him as a starter or competitor.
