Refusing to take a pay cut cost Nick McCloud his job with the New York Giants last week. It appears, though, to have helped him land in a better situation.
McCloud has signed with the San Francisco 49ers to become part of their practice squad, per Dan Duggan.
The 49ers, of course, represented the NFC in the Super Bowl last season, losing to the Kansas City Chiefs. This year, the 49ers are 5-4, fighting for the NFC West title and a playoff berth.
The Giants, of course, lost their fifth straight game on Sunday to fall to a miserable 2-8.
