Nothing really to speak of here, as all three players are either not far enough into a contract to be replaced or entering just a second season in the league.
The long-tenured guys are kicker Robbie Gould and long snapper Kyle Nelson, both of whom are looking to bounce back from difficult 2019 seasons. For Gould, it was struggling with consistency; for Nelson, it was from missing the first part of the season due to a PED suspension.
Punter Mitch Wishnowsky was a fourth-round draft pick last season and despite an up-and-down rookie year, will look to be a field-flipping weapon for the SF 49ers in 2020.
There’s a lot to like about the 49ers roster across the board and this is a team that looks to be built to compete for a championship in 2020.
