As the 2025 season approaches, the San Francisco 49ers are preparing for potential roster changes to improve their team. Several players may be released to create salary cap space and revamp the roster5.

  •  Designating veteran defensive lineman Javon Hargrave as a post-June 1 release means Hargrave will count $8.6 million in dead money in 2025 and $17.485 million in 2026, saving San Francisco a ton of money

  •  Cutting Yetur Gross-Matos could free up cap space, with potential savings of $2.9 million before June 1 or $7.8 million after June 15. In 2024, Gross-Matos played 34.5% of the snaps, recording four sacks and 10 pressures

  •  Some fans have suggested trading Deebo Samuel, but moving on from him before June 1 would result in a significant cap hit

  •  The 49ers have already parted ways with RB Ke’Shawn Vaughn, WR Ronnie Bell, and DT Nesta Jade Silvera

The 49ers hired Brant Boyer as special teams coordinator
