Report: 49ers, RB Raheem Mostert finalize new deal

Jul 27, 2020

San Francisco 49ers running back Raheem Mostert has finalized a new contract with the team, his agent announced Monday.

Earlier this month, agent Brett Tessler announced he had requested that the 49ers trade his client because of unproductive contract talks. However, the situation changed on Monday as Tessler tweeted:

"Just finalized a new deal for Raheem Mostert with the San Francisco 49ers. Happy we got things worked out and looking forward to him having another great season there. Thanks to the organization for taking care of him."

Fantasy Impact:

Details of the contract were not immediately known, but before the deal, Mostert was scheduled to be paid a base salary of $2.575 million this season and was due $2.875 million in 2021 as part of a three-year contract he signed last year. Mostert will be a high-upside back in any given week, but given the nature of the 49ers’ hot-hand approach at the position, this may be a frustrating situation for fantasy owners.

“I will be playing on Sunday. Very excited, can’t pass up playing the Packers. I will be out there for sure.”

George Kittle says he’s good to go for Sunday

Fantasy Impact:

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
