Niners trade QB Trey Lance to Cowboys for fourth-round pick
The San Francisco 49ers are trading quarterback Trey Lance to the Dallas Cowboys, NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported Friday.
The 49ers will receive a 2024 fourth-round pick in exchange for Lance, per NFL Network Insider Tom Pelissero.
The Niners, who traded three first-round picks to Miami to move up to select Lance No. 3 overall in the 2021 NFL Draft, announced earlier in the week that Lance would be the team's No. 3 quarterback on the depth chart behind Brock Purdy and Sam Darnold after the latter won the competition for the backup role.
"Really hard day, such a wonderful young man," 49ers general manager John Lynch said Friday night during the broadcast of San Francisco's preseason game. "We took a shot and it didn't work out. We own that. We take accountability for it. But I think, as I think you guys do, his story is still very much unwritten. I'm excited for Trey. Dallas stepped up and really wanted him and they came after him. And I think it's going to be a great landing spot for him. I can tell everybody, it wasn't for lack of effort on Trey's part or on our part, that it didn't work. Circumstances took hold and he struggled through injuries and this team's ready to win. We like our quarterback room. We like Brock Purdy a lot, we like Sam Darnold and we like Brandon Allen. So we wish Trey all the best in Dallas. We'll always care about that young man and admire his work ethic and the person that he is."
