“After months of unproductive talks with the 49ers about fairly adjusting Raheem Mostert’s contract (which paid him for special teams) we requested a trade,” said Mostert’s agent Brett Tessler.

He logged 190 carries for 1,108 yards and 13 touchdowns last season (postseason included). Mostert is currently 26th among all running backs in the latest expert consensus rankings, but that number could rise or fall pending on If he gets dealt.

"The 49ers also could ink extensions with two guys who could see new deals this year: Kendick Bourne and running back Raheem Mostert, who have outplayed their current contracts. Mostert, in fact, could see a deal get done ahead of Kittle’s," said Barrows. It was reported that the 49ers and Kittle remain "far apart" on a contract extension. Mostert is set to make $3.15 million in 2020 as the team focuses on signing the 28-year-old RB to an long-term deal. RBs Tevin Coleman and Jerrick McKinnon are entering the final year of their contracts. Mostert added weight this off-season in preparation of taking on a heavy workload. He logged 190 carries for 1,108 yards and 13 touchdowns last season (postseason included). Mostert is currently 26th among all running backs in the latest expert consensus rankings, but a contract extension could only help him rise in the RB ranks.

49ers RB Raheem Mostert told the media that he’s bulking up so that he can handle 200+ carries this season.

"I'm just building myself up," Mostert said. "I'm actually gaining some more muscle, which is kind of bizarre because I already had muscle. Just trying to incorporate those things in my daily workouts so I'm able to take those hits and be one of those guys who is getting 200 carries. I have to get prepared for that. And the only way I know how is to get bulky and stronger." Music to the ears of fantasy owners, or is it? Could the added weight compromise his ability as a shifty, speedy back? In theory, it could, but the extra carries he’s expecting sounds like a win for those who draft the San Francisco running back who finally broke out in 2019 after bouncing around in the NFL for five years. If Mostert does in fact receive 200+ carries, it would almost certainly negatively affect fellow RB Tevin Coleman.
