The Detroit Lions selected Tomlinson out of Duke with the No. 28 overall pick in 2015. He was traded to the 49ers on August 31, 2017, in exchange for a fifth-round draft pick.
Tomlinson has started all 53 of his game appearances since joining San Francisco. He signed a three-year contract extension with the 49ers in 2018, which will keep him with the team through the 2021 season.
