The San Francisco 49ers are retaining their center, Jake Brendel, after the offensive lineman attracted some interest in the free-agency market. NFL Media's Ian Rapoport reports that the team is re-signing Brendel to a four-year deal, revealing that the New York Jets made a push for the offensive lineman.
There were reports that several teams, not just the 49ers and Jets, were interested in Brendel. The deal's value is reportedly $20 million over the length of the contract.

The Dallas Cowboys signed Brendel (6-4, 299) as an undrafted free agent out of UCLA in 2016. He joined the 49ers on February 7, 2020, but missed his first season with the team after opting out of the 2020 season due to concerns surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic.
Brendel, 30, has 54 game appearances in 54 game appearances (20 starts) through his six NFL seasons, also spending time on the rosters of the Miami Dolphins and Baltimore Ravens.
