# Did the 49ers sign Mike Evans and Christian Kirk?

Yes, both signed with the 49ers this offseason! Here's the breakdown:

**Mike Evans** — Signed a **3-year, $60M deal** after over a decade in Tampa Bay (from the [Mike Evans page](https://chatffb.com/players/mike-evans)). He's the new WR1 in Kyle Shanahan's offense, bringing elite red-zone and deep-ball ability alongside Brock Purdy's arm. He was banged up in 2025 (career-low 368 yards in 8 games), but had 14 straight 1,000-yard seasons before that.

**Christian Kirk** — Also joined the 49ers, sliding into a **slot/WR3 role** behind Evans and Ricky Pearsall. Sal Vetri noted that the 49ers "signed [Christian Kirk] in the slot" as part of their revamped receiver room ([hear the clip](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z1pFw0YYkDc&t=802s)). The 49ers team page confirms they added both Evans and Kirk to replace Jauan Jennings and Skyy Moore (from the [49ers page](https://chatffb.com/teams/san-francisco-49ers)).

**Fantasy takeaway:** The 49ers' WR room is crowded now — Evans, Kirk, Pearsall, Christian McCaffrey out of the backfield, plus tight ends — which puts a cap on any one receiver's target volume. Evans is the high-upside bet on TD production, while Kirk provides a steady slot floor when healthy.
