The 49ers placed RB Jeff Wilson Jr., & FS Tarvarius Moore on the reserve\/PUP list, while they also placed LT Shon Coleman on injured reserve, which ends his season, while they also placed DE Jordan Willis on the reserve\/Suspended By Commissioner list, and lastly they traded MLB Jonas Griffith, & a 2022 7th-Round pick to the Denver Broncos for a 2022 6th-Round Pick, and a 2023 7th-Round Pick.<\/p>\n
Below is the 49ers initial 53-man roster.<\/p>\n
OFFENSE:<\/strong><\/p>\n QB(2): 10 Jimmy Garoppolo(2022)\/ 5 Trey Lance(2024) DEFENSE:<\/strong><\/p>\n DE(5): 97 Nick Bosa(2022)\/ 91 Arik Armstead(2024)\/ 55 Dee Ford(2022)\/ 56 Samson Ebukam(2022)\/ 98 Arden Key(2021) SPECIAL TEAMS:<\/strong><\/p>\n PK(1): 9 Robbie Gould(2022) RESERVE LISTS:<\/strong><\/p>\n PUP: RB 30 Jeff Wilson Jr.(2021) With these 60 players under contract, the 49ers at the moment, have $6,323,646 in salary cap room, but that will go down by $3.168 million when the team signs their practice squad tomorrow, giving them $3,155,646.<\/p>\n But that $3,155,646 will also go down when the 49ers place Maurice Hurst Jr. on short term IR, while replacing him with one of the players they cut, likely someone making $850,000.<\/p>\n I believe it’s very possible that the 49ers release Richie James Jr., & Shon Coleman from IR with injury settlements, as they’re taking up $920,000, & $990,000 respectively, for a total of $1.91 million in salary cap room.<\/p>\n
