San Francisco selected McKivitz in the fifth round of the 2020 NFL Draft with the No. 153 overall pick.
McKivitz was a four-year starter with the Mountaineers. He primarily played right tackle but anchored the left side during his senior year and even has experience playing right guard.
"Personally, (I think) I'm a prick," McKivitz responded in April when asked to describe his style of play on the football field. "I like to get inside guys' heads. I think that's one of the biggest things. If I can get him to think about me rather than [the offense], then I know I'm winning. That's the one thing I really enjoy about it."
Thanks to the NFL Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA), which was ratified in March and extends through the 2030 season, all rookie contracts are for a length of four years.
The total value of McKivitz's four-year contract is believed to be $3,624,780, or very close to that amount, according to OverTheCap.com. That includes a signing bonus of $329,780 and a 2020 salary-cap figure of $692,445.
