49ers Sign G Tom Compton To One-Year, $3M Deal

According to Matt Maiocco, the 49ers have signed former Jets G Tom Compton to a one-year deal. 

Compton will presumably have the chance to fill the void created when San Francisco released starting G Mike Person earlier today. 

Matt Barrows reports Compton’s deal is worth $3 million. 

Compton, 30, is a former sixth-round pick of the Redskins back in 2012. Compton spent four years in Washington before signed a one-year contract with the Falcons in 2016.

Compton spent a year with the Bears and Vikings before the Jets signed him for the 2019 season last March. 

In 2019, he appeared in 14 games for the Jets and was rated by Pro Football Focus as the No. 66 overall guard out of 82 qualifying players.
