Josina Anderson reports that the 49ers are re-signing veteran CB Jason Verrett to a one-year contract.
Ian Rapoport reports that Verrett is signing a one-year contract worth $5.5 million that can be worth up to $6.5 million if he makes the Pro Bowl.
Verrett, 29, was taken with the No. 25 overall pick back in 2014 by the Chargers. He finished his four-year rookie contract and played out 2018 under the fifth-year option for $8,526,000.
Verrett has landed on injured reserve for three consecutive years. He missed all of 2018 due to a ruptured Achilles. From there, he signed with San Francisco in 2019 and returned to San Francisco on another one-year contract last year.
In 2020, Verrett appeared in 13 games for the 49ers and recorded 60 tackles, two interceptions and seven passes defended.
We had him included in our Top 100 – 2021 Free Agents list.
