San Francisco 49ers RB Raheem Mostert is looking to be paid similarly to what the highest-paid running backs on the roster are scheduled to make, according to Mostert’s agent. RB Tevin Coleman is scheduled to make $4.55 million next season, which is what Mostert would like to make.
Footballguys View: Two million dollars of Coleman’s salary became guaranteed earlier in the offseason, but if the team released him, the $2.55 million freed up would be more than enough to satisfy Mostert. The team could also release CJ Beathard to create additional cap room. It’s possible that they wait to see if Jerick McKinnon can stay healthy in camp to force Mostert’s hand.
