The 49ers managed to wade through free agency in 2021 despite having nearly 40 players hitting the market, including a number of key names like Trent Williams, Kyle Juszczyk and K’Waun Williams. A quick look ahead to the 2022 offseason shows that next year won’t be nearly as difficult.
San Francisco is scheduled to have 34 players hit unrestricted free agency, but the number of high-impact players is lower than it was a season ago. Several of those free-agents-to-be are also on one-year deals, and not all 34 players are guaranteed to make the 53-man roster.
Here’s a quick look ahead at the 49ers scheduled for unrestricted free agency in 2022 going into training camp:
