ESPN Report: “I am worth to be traded” 49ers Key Man Insists Not To Play With Team Anymore.

The 49ers made another free-agent addition to their stout defense.

San Francisco agreed to terms with former Arizona Cardinals linebacker Ezekiel Turner on a one-year contract, KPRC’s Aaron Wilson reported on Saturday, citing Turner’s agents Ray Haija and Zeke Sandhu.Ezekiel Turner gets a one year deal with #49ers with prime opportunity to showcase skill at Iinebacker and as a core special teams contributor.

Turner spent his entire six-year NFL career with the Cardinals, signing with Arizona as an undrafted free agent in 2018. He’s recorded 83 combined tackles and three tackles for loss across 80 appearances since entering the league.

The 27-year-old has made a name for himself as a special teams ace, logging over 1,700 career snaps in the third phase of the game. That includes 342 special team snaps in the 2023 NFL season where Turner logged an impressive 78.6 grade, per Pro Football Focus.

With Oren Burks reportedly heading to the Philadelphia Eagles, Turner’s signing could fill the massive void left behind on both special teams and in the 49ers’ linebackers room, particularly with Dre Greenlaw recovering from an Achilles injury suffered in San Francisco’s Super Bowl LVIII loss.

Defense, defense, and more defense. That has been the theme from the San Francisco 49ers in free agency.

That has been the theme from the San Francisco 49ers in free agency. Every player they have signed has been on the defensive side of the ball. Not a single new offensive player has been signed, which is odd considering the offensive line issues.

However, there is a reason the 49ers haven’t signed any offensive free agents yet. It’s because they don’t need it. Outside of the offensive line, where is it that the 49ers need to add players to? There isn’t a position on their offense that a free agent addition is required. And it’s not like any offensive woes are due to a lack of talent.

The 49ers don’t need to go looking for anyone when they have five All-Pro players on offense. Quarterback, running back, tight end, and wide receiver are all perfectly fine. Maybe a tight end who is receiver oriented would be nice, but again offensive free agent signings are unnecessary from the 49ers.

Sure, the offensive line could use a spruce up, but free agency has offensive linemen being paid at an absurd rate. That is the cost of doing business at this time. Players are going for more than their actual value, so it makes no sense for the 49ers to overspend on talent that doesn’t match the salary.
