The San Francisco 49ers made one of their first moves of the offseason this weekend.

The Red & Gold have reportedly signed long-snapper Taybor Pepper to a long-term extension to stay in the Bay Area. Pepper hinted at a done deal Saturday when he posted a video to his social media accounts, thanking The Faithful for the past three seasons.

The rumors were confirmed shortly thereafter by ESPN’s Adam Schefter. Pepper signed a three-year deal with $1.5 million guaranteed to keep him in SF until the 2026 offseason.

Gould is a free agent this offseason as well, but with Pepper staying put, could his kicker be next?
