The 49ers are adding a safety and a tight end to the practice squad
Per the NFL Network’s Cameron Wolfe, the San Francisco 49ers are signing safety Darrick Forrest to the practice squad. After the Wild Card win, Kyle Shanahan said safety Ji’Ayir Brown is a “long shot” to play this weekend. Brown did not practice on Tuesday after a hamstring injury.
The 49ers also elevated linebacker Jalen Graham from the practice squad. Tatum Bethune and Luke Gifford were big-time special teamers. Turner is big, athletic, and fast enough to play special teams. Expect Graham and Turner to swap out for Bethune and Gifford if he can’t play.
The 49ers elevated linebacker Jalen Graham and wide receiver Malik Turner Saturday for their NFC wild card playoff game against the host Philadelphia Eagles. They also downgraded wide receiver Jacob Cowing to out following his first week of practice.
The San Francisco 49ers today announced they have signed S Darrick Forrest and TE Hayden Rucci to the practice squad and released WR Javon Baker from the team's practice squad. In addition, the team signed WR Colton Dowell to a Reserve/Future contract.
Rucci's football roots run deep. His father, Todd, was a former standout offensive lineman at Penn State who played eight seasons with the NFL's New England Patriots from 1993-2000, and his grandfather, Tom Gilburg, is also a former NFL player (Baltimore Colts 1961-65).
A theory has been floated online, and debunked by scientists, but that hasn't stopped NFL players from buying into the reporting of a quack who believes the Niners are more injured due to electromagnetic waves.
