Torrey Smith writes goodbye letter to Baltimore Ravens, fans
Wide receiver Torrey Smith has written a goodbye letter to the Baltimore ravens organization and their fans. In it, he thanks everyone for his time in Baltimore.
The San Francisco 49ers have been said to be the frontrunners to acquire Smith once free agency begins on Tuesday, March 10 at 1 PM Pacific.
Smith has been with the Ravens since they selected him in the second round of the 2011 NFL Draft. He has recorded 213 receptions for 3,591 yards and 30 receiving touchdowns in his 62 starts out of 64 games in his career.
Smith and current 49ers wide receiver Anquan Boldin helped the Ravens defeat the 49ers in Super Bowl XLVII and now they may play together again.

DeForest Buckner on 49ers with Trey Lance: 'You kind of get that Baltimore Ravens kind of vibe'
Jimmy Garoppolo will probably start when the San Francisco 49ers host DeForest Buckner and the Indianapolis Colts at Levi's Stadium this weekend. For Buckner, it will be his first time stepping into the stadium since the 49ers traded him to the Colts last year.

Have we seen Raheem Mostert in red and gold for the last time? The San Francisco 49ers running back will become a free agent after this season. He appeared in one game before suffering a knee injury and landing on injured reserve.
The initial prognosis had Mostert missing about eight weeks, providing hope that the veteran running back would return this season. It wasn't long before Mostert announced that he opted for surgery, ending his 2021 campaign.

Veteran center Alex Mack joined KNBR this morning and was asked about his rookie teammate. What does Banks need to do to get on the football field for the 49ers?
"Just keep putting the work in," Mack responded on the Murph & Mac show. "You know, he's a good dude. He works hard. He just has a couple of more things to learn and put the work in. And it's a credit to the other guards that it's not easy to break the starting lineup. We have a lot of depth here.
