It was previously reported that quarterback Blaine Gabbert would be returning to the 49ers with a two-year, $2 million contract. It turns out that it is a bit more than that.
He made about $2 million last year with the 49ers. Gabbert will be making $1.45 million in 2015 and $1.75 million in 2016. He had a $500,000 bonus and has a $200,000 roster bonus on the fifth day of the 2016 league year.
He also has incentives in the deal, including one for the Pro Bowl.
This was first reported by Aaron Wilson of the Baltimore Sun and retweeted by CSN Bay Area's Matt Maiocco.

Report: 49ers offered "way more" than No. 2 pick for Kirk Cousins in 2017

The San Francisco 49ers and their quarterback situation has been something to monitor ever since head coach Kyle Shanahan took over in 2017, with the team going from Jimmy Garoppolo to Trey Lance to Brock Purdy, with several other names in the mix over the years.
One of those names? Quarterback Kirk Cousins, who has a connection with Shanahan dating back to their Washington days, with rumors circulating that the two would reunite upon the head coach's arrival in San Francisco when the signal-caller became a free agent in 2018.
However, the 49ers never reached that stage, instead pulling the trigger on a trade for Garoppolo from the New England Patriots at the 2017 trade deadline for a second-round pick.
Well, that wasn't the full story between the
Why 49ers starters remained in the game longer than expected vs. Steelers
Kyle Shanahan can't believe what happened. The San Francisco 49ers head coach still has emotional scars from the regular-season opener two years ago against the Detroit Lions. The Niners had built a 41-17 fourth-quarter lead and felt the win was in hand.
Then, the Lions came storming back with two late scores.
San Francisco ended up escaping with a 41-33 win, but Shanahan could have done without the added excitement in the final minutes of what had looked like a blowout.
That game remains one of the reasons why the 49ers coach refuses to get too comfortable against an opponent, even with his team up big, as was the case on Sunday against the Pittsburgh
49ers agree to multi-year contract extensions with Kyle Shanahan and John Lynch
The San Francisco 49ers plan to keep the band together for a long time. The team announced that it has agreed to multi-year contract extensions with head coach Kyle Shanahan and general manager John Lynch.
Details of the contracts are currently unknown. Before the new deals, Shanahan had been signed through the 2025 season, while Lynch was locked up through the 2024 season. They will now remain with the team longer than that.
The 49ers Communications staff provided the following rundown.
The duo joined the 49ers in February of 2017 and have since led the organization to the postseason three times, claimed two NFC West division titles (2019 & 2022), reached three NFC Championship games (2019 & 2021-22) and a trip to Super Bowl
Kyle Shanahan even more impressed with Brock Purdy after 49ers-Giants film review
After the San Francisco 49ers' 30-12 victory over the New York Giants on Thursday night, head coach Kyle Shanahan expressed how happy he was with his second-year quarterback, Brock Purdy, despite some miscues.
"It definitely wasn't his best game, but I think Brock played well," Shanahan said. "I mean, he definitely wasn't perfect. Missed a couple of throws, but he also made a couple of plays that I didn't think were there. So I was definitely happy with him."
The next day, after reviewing what his team did against their Week 3 opponent, the coach was even more impressed with his quarterback.
"After watching the film, I was even more impressed than I saw last night after the game," Shanahan said Friday afternoon via a conference call. "We missed a
