49ers News: SF Signs ‘Intelligent’ Veteran WR to 53-Man Roster...
Heading into a huge amusement against the Seahawks in Week 14, there was a few San Francisco 49ers news as the group juggled the back conclusion of its list in trusts of fixing up its profundity. One player it made a move on was wide recipient Chris Conley, who has been with the hone squad but as as of now been hoisted the league-max three times. The 49ers marked Conley to the 53-man program, and set Ray-Ray McCloud on the IR.
The 49ers moreover brought up running back Jeremy McNichols and experienced security Erik Harris with standard practice-squad heights.
Losing McCloud, who was the team’s best kick and punt returner will sting, particularly since he will be out for the leftover portion of the customary season. The 49ers had rookie Ronnie Chime returning punts and star collector Deebo Samuel returning kicks in Week 13 against the Falcons.
Commenting on 49ers news of McCloud’s damage, coach Kyle Shanahan said, “He came out. I think he was constrained on Wednesday, but didn’t feel extraordinary. So we’ve need to be secure with him. Had a number of rib (injuries).”
Among the minor whirlwind of 49ers news on Saturday, the height of Chris Conley can be the foremost curiously. He could be a skilled recipient whose career was tossed off track by an Achilles ligament harm in 2017. He’s been on the 49ers hone squad all season but has however to record a stat. He has played 19 hostile snaps and nine uncommon groups snaps in his three diversions.
Back in 2018, when Conley was still appearing signs of advancement as a previous third-round choose of the Chiefs, Kansas City coach Andy Reid talked exceedingly of him, calling Conley, “very cleverly, a really difficult laborer and you drag for that kind of a guy.” Given that Conley had too set the NFL Draft Combine record for vertical jump (45 inches), Reid had reason to be energized. But the Chiefs let Conley walk in spite of five landing catches in 2018.
He marked on with Jacksonville in 2019 and caught 47 passes for 775 yards, moreover with five touchdowns. But that would demonstrate to be the stature of his career, and he has bounced through spells with Houston, back to Kansas City and on to the Titans since at that point.
Past the Chris Conley 49ers news, the expansion of McNichols is of intrigued, as well, since the group made a move this week on previous third-round choose Tyrion Davis-Price, letting him go to create room for the Logan Ryan marking, at that point re-signing Davis-Price to the hone squad.
But with reinforcement running back Elijah Mitchell, however once more, dicey since of a knee damage, the 49ers picked to bring up McNichols instead of Davis-Price from the hone bunch.
That appears how distant out of favor Davis-Price has fallen within the 49ers eyes. He was the 93rd choose less than20 months back, and presently he has been discharged, cleared waivers and is remaining on the hone squad in favor of McNichols, a experienced apprentice who has not showed up in a amusement since 2021.
Price-Davis showed up in fair one diversion this season, and, in his two-year career, has 40 carries for 120 yards.
