The\u00a0NFL\u00a0trade deadline is on November 5, 2024, and the\u00a0San Francisco 49ers\u00a0are one team worth keeping an eye on.<\/p>\n

Despite being seen as\u00a0Super Bowl\u00a0contenders, they could use some reinforcements considering that they’re heading into Week 10 with a 4-4 record \u2014 good for third place in the NFC West.<\/p>\n

Some believe that Kyle Shanahan’s team would benefit from adding depth to a handful of positions, including the wide receiver room as wideouts\u00a0Deebo Samuel\u00a0(rib\/oblique) and\u00a0Jauan Jennings\u00a0(hip) are both injured.\u00a0Brandon Aiyuk\u00a0is also out for the rest of the season following ACL and MCL tears.<\/p>\n

The good news for the 49ers is that if they want to add another receiver or two, several should be available before the deadline. That includes one option that the organization is more than familiar with: veteran WR Kendrick Bourne.<\/p>\n

“At 2-7, the\u00a0New England Patriots\u00a0aren’t in a position to be picky about selling aging role players,” CBS Sports’ Cody Benjamin\u00a0wrote\u00a0in an article about potential trade deadline pieces. “And Bourne, though banged up in recent years, has been a decent reserve for longer than fellow Patriots wideout K.J. Osborn, another potential trade chip.<\/p>\n

“A reunion with the San Francisco 49ers could make sense,” he added.<\/p>\n

Bourne has spent the last four seasons with the Patriots, however, he began his NFL career in San Francisco. After going unselected at the 2017 draft, the former Eastern Washington product joined the 49ers as an undrafted free agent on a three-year deal.<\/p>\n
