TRAGEDY: 49ers star Brock Purdy. running back was involved in incident that left…
The 49ers beefed up their quarterback room with a veteran addition.
San Francisco agreed to a one-year contract with free agent QB Joshua Dobbs, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported on Monday, citing Dobbs’ agent, Mike McCartney.
The deal is a one-year, $2.25 million contract, and includes an additional $750,000 in playing time incentives, Schefter reported.
49ers are giving Josh Dobbs a one-year, fully-guaranteed $2.25 million deal that includes another $750K in play-time incentives.
The 29-year-old quarterback was teammates with wide receiver Jauan Jennings at the University of Tennessee for two seasons in 2015 and 2016, with the pair connecting for an incredible Hail Mary to seal an upset road win over Georgia as time expired.
The reported addition of Dobbs insulates a 49ers quarterback room that already has Brock Purdy and Brandon Allen under contract.
The 49ers might have acquired a hidden gem when they agreed to terms with veteran free-agent cornerback Isaac Yiadom on a one-year contract Friday.
Yiadom, a six-year NFL veteran, ranks among the league’s best in press coverage and is a low-risk, high-reward option for new 49ers defensive coordinator Nick Sorensen’s evolving unit.
