The San Francisco 49ers will have their entire 2020 draft class signed by the end of the day. Tight end Charlie Woerner, who played college football at Georgia, will sign his four-year rookie deal after passing a physical in Santa Clara, according to Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area. The 49ers selected him in the sixth round of the 2020 NFL Draft with the No. 190 overall pick.
Update: The 49ers officially announced the signing of Woerner.
The fifth and final of the #49ers draft picks to sign will occur today after TE Charlie Woerner (sixth round, Georgia) passes his physical in Santa Clara.
Woerner caught 34 passes for 376 yards and a touchdown in four seasons with the Bulldogs.
"I kind of see myself as a do it all guy," Woerner said in April after being drafted by the 49es. "A guy who can do anything and really just going to do what the team asks me to do. That's what I did at Georgia, and I'll do whatever it takes to win a ball game. I'm excited to go to the 49ers and win some ball games."
Thanks to the NFL Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA), which was ratified in March and extends through the 2030 season, all rookie contracts are for a length of four years. First-round selections come with a team-executable fifth-year option, which does not apply to Woerner.
The total value of Woerner's four-year contract is believed to be $3,476,032, or very close to that amount, according to OverTheCap.com. That includes a signing bonus of $181,032 and a 2020 salary-cap figure of $655,258.
