Anquan Boldin has spoken to Chip Kelly, but not the front office.

The 49ers wide receiver, a pending free agent, said he’s yet to engage in contract discussions with the 49ers. Boldin will become an unrestricted free agent at the start of the league year on March 9.

“I haven’t talked to anybody yet,” Boldin said on a conference call today. “… I’m not to the point where I feel like I have to deal with that right now. I’ll deal with it when the time comes.”

Boldin, who will turn 36 in October, led the 49ers in catches (69), yards (789) and tied for team-high honors with four touchdowns in 2015, despite missing two games with a hamstring injury. His yardage total and yards-per-catch average (11.4) were his lowest since 2006, when he played in 10 games. Boldin, Torrey Smith and Jerome Simpson are the only the wide receivers on the roster with more than 36 career catches.

Despite his uncertain 2016 status, Boldin said Kelly reached out to him shortly after he was hired.

“He called me and we had a brief conversation,” Boldin said. “It was more of an introduction … We talked for a little bit and that was that.”

Boldin said he’s interested to learn more about Kelly’s fast-paced offense.

I think everybody is,” he said. “I think it’s always that way when you have a new coach. Everybody is curious about a number of different things, so we’ll see how that plays out.”

For the second straight year, Boldin is one of three finalists for the Walter Payton Man of the Year award, which recognizes off-the-field contributions to the community (story here). No member of the 49ers has won the award since its inception in 1970.
