Carlos Hyde entered the NFL as the 49er side of the San Francisco 49ers, finishing 57th overall in the second round of the 2014 NFL Draft, and along with the 49ers he had to prove himself better than Frank Gore, Kendall Hunter, Marcus Lattimore, and LaMichael James to find a place in the team.

Carlos ended his first NFL season with 12 games, from which he scored 83 Carrys over 333 yards with four touchdowns. In his second season (2015) with the Niners, he finished the season with 115 carries over 470 yards with 3 deserved touchdowns and a touchdown from a spin move.

The terms of the contract included a signing bonus of $3,500,000 and an $8,000,000 guarantee.
