It was already expected that San Francisco 49ers safety Dashon Goldson would be one of the hottest commodities on the market when free agency begins on Tuesday.

In fact, Goldson is already being pursued by multiple teams on the eve of free agency.

According to Adam Schefter of ESPN.com, four teams are in play to sign the two-time Pro Bowler. The 49ers, Detroit Lions, Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Philadelphia Eagles are all in the running to sign Goldson with the Lions and Buccaneers likely the front-runners.

Goldson has made the Pro Bowl in consecutive seasons and been an enforcer in the 49ers’ secondary. He made 69 tackles with three interceptions and a forced fumble for San Francisco last season. With Ed Reed seemingly an option for the 49ers, Goldson could decide to head elsewhere to play next season.
