San Francisco 49ers’ Arik Armstead reacts after sacking Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith in the first quarter of their NFC wild-card playoff game at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, Calif., on Saturday, Jan. 14, 2023. SANTA CLARA — Arik Armstead, the longest-tenured member of the 49ers’ current roster, will be released and test the NFL’s free agency market when negotiations open Monday, according to multiple reports.
Armstead was slated to make a $17.4 million base salary in what would have been his 10th season on the 49ers. He will count $25.9 million against this year’s salary cap, rather than $28.4 million had he stayed on his current roster, according to OverTheCap.com. Foot and knee injuries hindered Armstead’s past two regular seasons, limiting him to 21 of 34 games. However, he overcome last November’s meniscus tear in his knee, as well as plantar fasciitis in his foot, to appear in all three playoff games, including the Super Bowl, where he sacked Patrick Mahomes in a 25-22 overtime loss to Kansas City.
Armstead’s anticipated release was first reported by veteran NFL reporter Jordan Schultz and NBC Sports Bay Area’s Matt Maiocco, the latter of whom reported that Armstead declined a pay cut.49ers face significant questions with their own free agents — beyond Jennings Losing Armstead would put a further emphasis this offseason on restocking the defensive line, where they have other pending free agents in Clelin Ferrell, Chase Young, Randy Gregory, Javon Kinlaw and Randy Gregory.Ask Amy: She doesn't want her child to have access to Harry Potter at our houseAsk Amy: The teddy bear ultimatum, and other strategies for decluttering after the kids leaveTwo great Rock and Roll Hall of Famers announce co-headlining tourThey were part of the Bay Area exodus.
