The 49ers placed a second-round tender on the 24-year-old Bourne on March 17. He is preparing to enter his fourth NFL season.
Bourne joined the NFL and the 49ers as an undrafted free agent out of Eastern Washington in 2017. He registered 30 receptions for 358 yards with five touchdowns through 16 games in 2019 and has caught 88 passes for 1,102 yards with nine touchdowns through his three NFL seasons.
Bourne, who has become a fan-favorite, last month discussed being tendered a contract by the 49ers.
"Just thrilled, man, and thankful for the Niners still believing in me after [three] years now," Bourne told NBC Sports Bay Area. "Even believing in me for year four, and just ready to attack it. It sucks that our OTAs are postponed. I was really excited to get back and get to work, be around the guys again."
