The Falcons backup quarterback could follow offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan to the 49ers, who can officially hire Shanahan after Super Bowl LI on Sunday, ESPN reported. Schaub surrendered his role after a stretch during which he had an interception returned for a touchdown in an NFL-record four straight games. In 2009, with Shanahan, Schaub led the NFL in passing yards (4,770) and also had career-highs in touchdown passes (29) and passer rating (98.6). Schaub, a Pro Bowl selection in 2009 and 2012, ranks 10th among active quarterback in passer rating (89.1), 15th in passing yards (24,867) and 17th in touchdowns (133).

Kyle Juszczyk hopes to return to the San Francisco 49ers next season. Like so many of his teammates, he is scheduled to become a free agent. The fullback knows the situation, though. The team is pressed up against a salary cap that is expected to fall in 2021. That means some tough decisions are to be made, and Juszczyk is already by far the highest-paid fullback in the league. He is also the best and a key component in the 49ers' rushing attack.
Juszczyk spoke with reporters on Monday via Zoom and was noticeably emotional while discussing his NFL future.
