49ers’ Kyle Shanahan Indicates Trade Stance After Concerning Development
The San Francisco 49ers keep on winning.

San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan has signaled that the team might consider a trade for their wide receiver situation, despite maintaining a perfect 6-0 record this 2026 NFL season. The Niners have faced setbacks with injuries to key players, most notably star wide receiver Mike Evans, who suffered an Achilles issue in a recent game and was unable to return.
Injuries to other receivers, including Ricky Pearsall, De’Zhaun Stribling, Demarcus Robinson, Deebo Samuel Sr., and Christian Kirk, have also impacted the team's offense. While some of these players may return sooner, San Francisco's wide receiver unit is currently in poor shape, according to Shanahan. A trade could potentially alleviate the problem, but the team is not actively pursuing one at the moment.
The 49ers' offense remains among the league's most productive, averaging 29.5 points and 366.7 total yards per game, which are the top 10 in the league. The team's next matchup will be a Week 7 game against the Atlanta Falcons on the road.
