There must be something about the Bay Area that keeps Kendrick Bourne coming back.
Maybe it’s the fog that rolls overLevi’s Stadiumin the morning, or the way the crowd paints a sea of red before every home game. Or maybe he just has unfinished business.
After resurrecting his career on a one-year deal with the49ersin 2025, Bourne is making his free agent intentions known before he’s even hit the open market.
He wants to return to the 49ers.
“The year went great,” Bourne said on hisYouTube channellast week. “Hitting free agency this year, it’s gonna be fun. I want to go back to San Fran, so that’s the plan, but it’s all got to make sense.”
Translation? He’s betting on himself again — but this time he’d prefer the long-term security to come wrapped in red and gold.
“I’m trying to come back.Talk to Kyle (Shanahan)… I’m trying to make it happen. San Francisco is home. I’m trying to run it back,” Bourne said on Richard Sherman’s podcast.

Bourne’s candor has always been part of his charm. Earlier this month, he raised eyebrows by questioning whether theelectrical substation near the team facilitymight explain why the grass sometimes turns browns at practice.
