Mac Jones to Steelers? Forty Niners Trade Speculation

About this episode

Mac Jones, the San Francisco Forty Niners quarterback, could be traded to the Pittsburgh Steelers, according to FanSided analyst Austen Bundy. Jones, who stepped up last season when Brock Purdy was injured, has shown potential as a solid bridge option for the Steelers, who lack a clear long-term answer at the position. The former fifteenth overall pick remains under contract through 2026, so any deal would require negotiating a fair price. The Forty Niners, who know the value of reliable backups, could be open to trading Jones as teams shuffle their rosters ahead of the new season.

On March 20th, here's the latest surrounding the NFL. Pittsburgh Steelers fans might have a new quarterback option on the horizon, as reports suggest the San Francisco 49ers could trade mag zones. Their way, fan-sided analysts Austin Bundy predicts this move to address Pittsburgh's ongoing uncertainty at the position. Jones stepped up big-time last season when Brock Perty dealt with an injury, starting eight games and guiding the 49ers to a five-and-three. Record, he drew for 2,151 yards, 13 touchdowns, and just six interceptions. Some 49ers supporters even pushed for Jones to keep the starting job over Perty, showing his potential as more than just the backup. For the Steelers, who lack a clear long-term answer, he represents a solid bridge option without breaking the bank. The former 15th overall pick from the 2021 draft remains under contract through the 2026 season, so any deal would. Require negotiating a fair price. Meanwhile, the 49ers know the value of reliable backups after past injuries.

This speculation keeps heating up as teams shuffle their rosters ahead of the new season, leaving fans watching every potential trade closely.
