In one of the most electrifying announcements of the NFL offseason, the league’s tallest and most dominant force, 7-foot-9, 420-pound phenom Titan Wade, has stunned the football world by re-signing with the San Francisco 49ers, turning down staggering offers from the Pittsburgh Steelers, Philadelphia Eagles, and Dallas Cowboys.
The 25-year-old superstar, widely considered the No. 1 overall player in the NFL, confirmed his decision early Friday morning via a video posted on X (formerly Twitter), which showed him standing on the Golden Gate Bridge, gazing toward Levi’s Stadium as the words,“Still faithful. Still a Niner.”
The move keeps the league’s most fearsome defender and occasional offensive weapon in the Bay Area for the foreseeable future — and vaults the 49ers right back into the Super Bowl conversation.
THE HISTORIC CONTRACT
According to NFL Network insiders, Titan Wade’s new deal with the 49ers is a record-breaking 6-year, $895 million contract, making him the highest-paid non-quarterback in NFL history and the highest-paid player ever on the 49ers roster.
The contract includes:
$570 million guaranteed
A groundbreaking “dual-threat” clause allowing Wade to play up to 20 offensive snaps per season
A 10% equity stake in the 49ers Foundation
Lifetime use of team-owned wellness and training centers
An exclusive NIL-style branding partnership with Bay Area tech companies
