Matt Maiocco of CSN Bay Areaย reports that the 49ers want veteran CB Carlos Rogersย to reduce his salary by “more than half” next season.
Shouldย Rogers be unwilling to take a pay cut next season, Maiocco expects San Francisco to cut him loose. The 49ers approach him about reducing his salary last year, but an injury toย Chris Culliver changed the negotiations and ultimately led to him playing out the season under hisย scheduled salary.
Rogers, 32, totaledย 47 tackles, two interceptions, and eight pass defenses over the course of 16 games last season. Pro Football Focus rated Rogers as the No. 71 cornerback in 2013, struggling particularly in coverage.
