The San Francisco 49ers' payroll department is going to have a lot of expense reports to go through after Super Bowl LIV. Of course, it might actually be there in Miami for the game against the Kansas City Chiefs.
Cam Inman of Bay Area News Group reports that the 49ers are flying over 1,500 staff members and their spouses to Miami on multiple charter planes for Super Bowl LIV. Team CEO Jed York confirmed that on Friday.
"We're taking a lot of people," York told Inman. "We wanted to make sure that our entire staff had the opportunity to go — everybody from Kyle (Shanahan) and John (Lynch), all the way down to interns.
"Everyone's been a part of this, and we wanted to make sure they're there to help and also celebrate the moment that hopefully gets us over the hump."
This is the 49ers' seventh trip to a Super Bowl and the first since the 2012 season, and it would appear the team is opening up its wallet for the experience. 49ers players will board a Miami-bound plane on Sunday, a week before kicking off Super Bowl LIV against the Chiefs.

Rapoport: 49ers send clear message to teams inquiring about Brandon Aiyuk
Ian Rapoport didn't offer much of an update on the ongoing contract negotiations between the San Francisco 49ers and their standout wide receiver, Brandon Aiyuk. However, the NFL insider emphasized one thing: The team is not entertaining trade discussions at this juncture.
Reacting to Aiyuk's decision to unfollow the 49ers on Instagram, Rapoport couldn't help but chuckle at the latest development. This practice has become commonplace among players who are unhappy with their contract situations. Wide receiver Deebo Samuel similarly took this action in 2022 before requesting to be traded just before the draft.
Things have yet to escalate that far with Aiyuk, but Rapoport sees his
7-round mock draft from The Athletic sees 49ers fortifying defense early
Analyst Dane Brugler recently revealed his seven-round mock draft for The Athletic, forecasting all 257 selections in the upcoming 2024 NFL Draft, set to kick off next week.
"Piecing together a mock like this is time consuming, but I enjoy the exercise, because it allows me to focus on each team's needs, organizational trends and prospect-team pairings that make sense based on '30' visits, league buzz and overall interest," Brugler wrote.
Most expect the 49ers to address the trenches early in the draft, and Brugler has the team doing that. It's just not on the offensive side of the football. In fact, Brugler doesn't have San Francisco
