Reign Sports Managment announced that their client DL Mike Purcell signed a contract with the Chiefs on Friday.
Purcell, 27, originally signed on with the 49ers as an undrafted free agent out of Wyoming back in 2013. He bounced on and off the team’s practice squad before making San Francisco’s active roster for the 2015 and 2016 seasons.
The 49ers waived Purcell shortly after re-signing him to a one-year exclusive rights deal and was claimed by the Rams. After having brief stints on the Bears, Patriots, and Panthers’ practice squads, he closed out the 2017 season on Kansas City’s practice squad.
The Chiefs re-signed him to a futures contract back in January but waived him in April.
In 2016, Purcell appeared in 15 games for the 49ers and recorded 26 total tackles.
