49ers Rumors: Jeff Wilson Traded to Dolphins for 5th-Round Draft Pick

The San Francisco 49ers will be getting running back Jeff Wilson from the Miami Dolphins in exchange for a fifth-round draft pick in 2023, according to a report.

The outgoing package the Dolphins sent to the Broncos for Bradley Chubb was replaced by Wilson, according to reports.

Through eight games, Wilson has run for 468 yards and two touchdown He did a good job as San Francisco's primary ball- carrier.

Mitchell should come back at some point, and Wilson should be gone by that time. It's surprising the Niners weren't able to get more than a fifth-round pick for the player.

Wilson will rejoin his former teammates in Miami, including Mostert, who coached him in San Francisco. He should be able to adjust to his surroundings.

As a backup to Mostert, Wilson is an upgrade, and that could mean a more equal split in the back field. The new-look running game may not be able to compete with Mostert's carries.

Miami is attempting to fortify its ranks for the second half by dealing for Chubb and Wilson.
