🔥 OFFICIAL: 49ERS SIGN MAC JONES – A GAMBLE OR A MASTERSTROKE? 🔥

The San Francisco 49ers have shocked the NFL by signing Mac Jones to a two-year, $7 million deal, with $5 million guaranteed. The former Alabama star is now joining the team that eliminated him from the playoffs in 2021!

💥 Mac Jones – From Pro Bowl to Backup?

At 26 years old, Jones was the 15th overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft by the New England Patriots, and his rookie season was filled with promise:

✅ 3,801 passing yards, 22 touchdowns, 67.6% completion rate
✅ Led the Patriots to a 10-7 record and a playoff berth
✅ Named a Pro Bowl alternate

However, his career quickly took a downward spiral. After losing offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels, Jones was forced to work with Matt Patricia (a defensive coach) and Joe Judge (a special teams coach)—a disastrous combination.

🔻 2022: 2,997 yards, 14 TDs, 11 INTs, only 6 wins in 14 starts.
🔻 2023: 2,120 yards, 10 TDs, 12 INTs, lost his starting job to Bailey Zappe.
🔻 2024: Traded to the Jacksonville Jaguars, where he went 2-5 as a replacement for Trevor Lawrence.

Despite his struggles, Jones still caught the attention of Kyle Shanahan. Why? The 49ers need a reliable backup for Brock Purdy, and Shanahan believes Jones still has untapped potential in the right system.

🔥 ARE THE 49ERS TAKING A RISK?

Mac Jones isn’t a blockbuster signing, but at $7 million, he could be a cheap and solid insurance policy if Purdy goes down.

💭 The big questions:
👉 Can Kyle Shanahan revive Mac Jones, just like he did with Jimmy Garoppolo?
👉 Or is this just money down the drain?

The 49ers have placed their bet, and only time will tell if it pays off! 🚀
