The San Francisco 49ers have already undergone some major changes this offseason, saying goodbye DeMeco Ryans, Jimmy Garoppolo, Jimmie Ward, Hassan Ridgeway, and others.

However, that might not be the end of the big moves for the 49ers.

According to NFL insider Ian Rapoport, the 49ers have received multiple trade calls in regard to former starting quarterback, Trey Lance.

And while the 49ers are not the ones initiating these calls, teams are reportedly aware that Brock Purdy will be the team's future starter, leading to a renewed interest in the No. 3 overall pick.

The Texans are a clear trade candidate for Lance, who worked with their first-year offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik and head coach DeMeco Ryans with the Niners. Houston also has the premium draft capital to get a deal done, especially if they are not interested in taking a quarterback with the No. 2 overall pick in this year's draft.

Should the Texans be on the phone for Lance?

Among the teams who have supposedly called the 49ers, are the Minnesota Vikings, who currently sit with just one quarterback on the roster in Kirk Cousins.

Cousins is currently entering the final year of his deal, and will be guaranteed $10 million next season, but once that contract is up, there is no clear future for the veteran in Minneapolis.
