# Mac Jones

NFL player. Position: **QB**. Team: **SF**.

## Quick Facts

- **Position:** QB
- **Team:** SF (San Francisco 49ers)
- **Age:** 28
- **Experience:** 5 accrued seasons

## 2026 Outlook

Mac Jones is the 49ers' backup QB and has positioned himself as one of the NFL's most capable backups. In 2025, when Brock Purdy missed eight games with a turf toe injury, Jones completed 69.6% of his passes and threw 13 TDs to 6 INTs, leading the 49ers to five wins in eight starts. His quick decision-making fits well with Kyle Shanahan's offensive system, and he has the mobility to extend plays without being skittish in the pocket.

Backup QB behind Brock Purdy. Has demonstrated he can command the offense and win games if called upon.

## Injury Status

Dealt with shoulder soreness earlier in the offseason but cleared for full warmups and positional work.
