The San Francisco 49ers and Fred warner have agreed on an a 3-year $63 million contract extension. This deal, which includes $56 million guaranteed, will tie the star linebacker to the team through the 2029 season.
This deal is very deserving, and makes Warner the highest paid linebacker in the NFL for a second time. At 28 years old, he still dominates the game and is recognized as one of the best linebackers in the NFL.
After extending Warner, the 49ers have now locked in three of their best players in Brock Purdy, George Kittle, and now Warner.
The 49ers look to bounce back this season after ending 2024 at 6-11 and fourth in their division.
Locking in one of the best defensive players in the league is a great move by the organization, which looks to return to its winning ways.
