The San Francisco 49ers are trading running back Matt Breida to the Miami Dolphins for a fifth-round pick in this year's draft, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN.
49ers are trading RB Matt Breida to Dolphins for fifth-round pick, per source.
Breida signed his one-year tender with the 49ers on April 16. The team placed the second-round tender on the 25-year-old running back on March 17. Breida is preparing to enter his fourth NFL season.
The 49ers signed Breida as an undrafted free agent out of Georgia Southern in 2017. He carried the football 123 times for 623 yards with a rushing touchdown while adding 19 receptions for 120 yards with a receiving touchdown through 13 games and five starts in 2019.
While Breida had nine carries for 19 yards during the 49ers' first two playoff games in January, he didn't touch the football during Super Bowl LIV against the Kansas City Chiefs. The running back has accumulated 1,902 rushing yards on 381 attempts with six rushing touchdowns through his three NFL seasons.

An Arsenal of Weapons: The 49ers Have Quietly Become Even More Dangerous on Offense in 2024

It's not a shock to anyone who looks back at the past two NFL seasons to contemplate that the San Francisco 49ers' offense has finally stepped out of the shadow cast by the team's ever-imposing defense. Since their 2019 Super Bowl run, players like Nick Bosa, Fred Warner, Dre Greenlaw, and former 49ers Richard Sherman and Jimmie Ward have garnered most of the attention when talking about the team. That was indeed the case until 2022, when future Hall-of-Fame running back Christian McCaffrey, who came to San Francisco in a mid-season trade with the Carolina Panthers, changed the conversation. The 49ers' offense was suddenly seen not just as a semi-capable complement to a sterling defense, but rather as a unit that could put up some points, and in a dramatic way.
