He signed with the 49ers on Oct. 23. His only action for the team in Week 7 when he played 20 special teams snaps against the Colts.
The 49ers made four practice squad moves, cutting linebacker Nathan Gerry, running back Jacques Patrick and defensive lineman Eddie Yarbrough and placing safety Kai Nacua on injured reserve.
