Kendrick Bourne responds to news of 49ers trading for Trent Williams and Joe Staley retiring

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Kendrick Bourne responded to the two-biggest pieces of Niners-related news from Saturday morning — the team trading for Trent Williams and the report that Joe Staley is retiring.

San Francisco surrendered its fifth-round pick this year and a third-rounder in next year's draft for the former Washington offensive tackle. Bourne seemingly likes the move.


Bourne's response to the Staley news has been similar to that of the fans. He, like so many others, will miss seeing the 13-year veteran anchor the offensive line at left tackle.


Another winning response from Saturday was 49ers CEO Jed York's reply to a tweet showing a small post-game skirmish between Trent Williams and veteran cornerback Richard Sherman, then with the Seattle Seahawks. The two are now teammates.


Here is what Sherman said about the incident with his new teammate.

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?

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

So they have given us some things to discuss during the offseason. We opened the 49ers Webzone Mailbag this week to answer your questions.

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. The linebacker's reduced impact is due to the 49ers using a portion of up to $1.45 million of salary that won't count against the salary cap for veteran players. The 49ers are paying Feliciano a
