The latest 49ers trade rumors focus on QB Nick Mullens and the reported trade interest he’s drawing from other NFL teams. Recent reports suggest that at least one team has called about the backup QB, but would the 49ers actually trade him away? San Francisco 49ers rumors suggested the 49ers would be buyers at the trade deadline, specifically targeting as WR. After trading for Emmanuel Sanders on Tuesday, could the Niners now be looking to sell?

The 49ers aren’t exactly shopping Mullens, but they are listening to offers. With Jimmy Garoppolo healthy and performing well, Nick Mullens primary value to the 49ers is insurance in case Jimmy G gets injured yet again. Mullens replaced C.J. Bethard in the starting lineup at the end of last season, however, Bethard looked much improved in the 49ers preseason.
Nick Mullens completed 64.2% of his passes for 2,277 yards, 13 touchdowns and a whopping 10 interceptions in 2018. Injuries have hit quarterbacks hard this year, with Drew Brees, Ben Roethlisberger, Cam Newton and Patrick Mahomes all out currently. That’s not accounting for Nick Foles who just returned and Andrew Luck who retired after an injury. All that to say, there’s no shortage of need for backups in the NFL right now.
