Fifth-year option declined
The 49ers opted not to pick up the fifth-year option on Kinlaw's rookie contract Friday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Kinlaw was selected by the 49ers with the 14th overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft, but he has struggled to stay healthy, playing in just 24 games in his first three seasons. General manager John Lynch told reporters on Friday that Kinlaw was having "an outstanding offseason," and San Francisco views him as a key rotational player for the defense. Kinlaw will be behind defensive tackle Javon Hargrave, who signed a four-year, $84 million contract with the 49ers in March.

2020 Fantasy Outlook
Selected with the 14th overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft, Kinlaw will have big shoes to fill replacing DeForest Buckner on the interior of San Francisco's dominant defensive line. Unlike his predecessor, the South Carolina product is more of a run-stuffing bull rusher who is unlikely to post the near double-digit sack totals the team was accustomed to receiving from Buckner. For that reason, Kinlaw is unlikely to be an impact IDP player unless he can somehow generate gaudy tackle totals, which is difficult to do at the defensive tackle position.
