SANTA CLARA — The 49ers’ payroll department got a head start Friday on company business, before the team could make its first picks in the NFL draft.

Fellow 2020 first-round pick Javon Kinlaw, an injury-laden defensive tackle, is not expected to have his fifth-year option exercised as he enters the final year of his rookie deal with a $10.5 million salary.
