The San Francisco 49ers announced that they’ve waived five players ahead of Tuesday’s deadline to cut rosters down to 53 players.
The full list includes:
- CB Nate Brooks
- DL La’Darius Hamilton
- DL Breeland Speaks
- LB Kyahva Tezino
- DL Spencer Waege
Speaks, 27, is a former second-round pick of the Chiefs back in 2018. He was entering the third year of his four-year, $6,110,516 rookie contract when the Chiefs cut him loose coming out of training camp.
Speaks had a brief stint on the Raiders’ practice squad in October before signing with the Cowboys’ practice squad a month later. From there, he had stints with the Giants, Cowboys and Bills.
The 49ers signed Speaks to a contract a few weeks ago.
In 2018, Speaks appeared in all 16 games for the Chiefs and recorded 24 tackles, 1.5 sacks, a forced fumble, and two recoveries.
