McMorris Joins Niners, Safety Upgrade in Sight

0:00On April 28th, the San Francisco 49ers just locked in two new players with one-year deals. Running back sincere McCormick is back after riding the practice squad last season. And safety. Patrick McMorris is joining the squad too. Fresh off a stint with the Giants. McMorris got picked in the sixth round of the 2024 NFL Draft right out of cow in the Bay area. As a rookie, he logged over 100 snaps, mostly on special teams, with a handful of free safety. He didn't see any regular season action, but showed speed and preseason and at his pro day. Fans have been calling for a safety upgrade since the draft, and it didn't quite happen then. Analysts agreed the room needed help, but now McMorris steps in as a potential boost. General manager John Lynch dropped hints about adding more depth post draft, and McMorris' agency broke the news on Twitter Monday. He skipped the 9ers local pro day, but flashed elite agility with a 4.2920 yard shuttle. Looks like training camp could bring even more moves at safety, keeping the roster shake up alive.
