Despite that loss, the 49ers will enter the 2020 season as favorites to go all the way yet again. However, there is some internal drama taking place in San Francisco right now.
Running back Raheem Mostert handed in a trade request earlier this month. The 28-year old is demanding a better contract after having put forth a stellar performance in the league last season.
