Kelly on 49ers reportedly shopping Staley: ‘That’s news to me’

Oct 24, 2016 at 3:00 PM--


On Sunday, ProFootballTalk.com reported Staley would be available before the Nov. 1 deadline and the 49ers were hoping to receive a first-round pick for the five-time Pro Bowl selection. Kelly dismissed it as standard "speculation" because the 49ers are 1-6 and Staley, 32, is an accomplished veteran with trade value. Kelly was asked if he'd talked to Staley: "I don't make it a habit," he said, "to talk to our guys about erroneous reports." Kelly said LB Aaron Lynch and CB Rashard Robinson are the only players who were injured in Sunday's 34-17 loss to Tampa Bay who could miss playing time after the bye week. DT Arik Armstead exited in the third quarter after aggravating the shoulder injury he sustained early in training camp.

The Jacksonville Jaguars were reportedly interested in trading for star wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk. However, the San Francisco 49ers' asking price of the No. 17 overall pick plus a player was seemingly too high for the team. Now, it appears another AFC team might be trying to pry Aiyuk away from the West Coast. Andrew Fillipponi of Pittsburgh-area radio station 93.7 The Fan reports that the Steelers are looking to work out a deal with the 49ers for the receiver. "Sources: The Steelers have looked into 49ers WR Brandon Aiyuk," Fillipponi wrote on social media. "He's entering the last year of his contract. Steelers would have to execute a sign and trade. But they've shown

What is Brandon Staley's role with the 49ers?

By David Bonilla

Following the dismissal of Steve Wilks, Brandon Staley interviewed for the San Francisco 49ers' vacant defensive coordinator job. Opting to go with internal candidate Nick Sorenson allowed the team to maintain continuity while entrusting the defense to a play-caller very familiar with the scheme the 49ers want to deploy. Sorenson previously worked with former defensive coordinator DeMeco Ryans and served as an assistant with the Seattle Seahawks, so that familiarity gave him the edge. Where did that leave Staley? The 49ers hired him, too. However, Staley won't serve as the team's defensive coordinator. Right now, he has the title of assistant head coach. He will be heavily involved in game-day planning. Speaking to reporters at the NFL owners

Offensive lineman Jon Feliciano and linebacker Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles recently re-signed with the San Francisco 49ers on one-year deals. OverTheCap.com has revealed the contract information for both deals. Feliciano signed a contract that includes the minimum base salary for a player with eight accrued seasons of experience—$1.21 million. Flannigan-Fowles' base salary is slightly higher, at about $1.77 million. Feliciano is scheduled to count about $2.28 million against the 2024 salary cap, while Flannigan-Fowles is slated to consume almost $1.3 million.
