Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports that the 49ers have given Goodwin and his representatives permission to speak with interested teams to negotiate a new contract. That could make it easier for San Francisco to trade Goodwin.
Goodwin signed a three-year extension in 2018 and is scheduled to count $11.4 million against the team's salary cap over the next two seasons, according to Spotrac.
Goodwin registered just 12 receptions for 186 yards with a touchdown through nine games and six starts with the 49ers last season before landing on injured reserve on December 10, 2019.
