Key had drawn interest from a number of teams including the Ravens, Jaguars, and Lions.
Key, 25, is a former third-round pick of the Raiders out of LSU back in 2018. He was entering the final year of his four-year, $3,286,376 contract and set to earn a base salary of $2,183,000 when the Raiders waived him.
The 49ers signed Key to their active roster and he had a solid season for the team in 2021 before becoming a free agent.
In 2021, Key appeared in all 17 games for the 49ers and recorded 17 tackles and six and a half sacks.
