Teams often go through minor shuffling and changes at the back end of their offseason rosters, which helps explain why the San Francisco 49ers brought aboard 28-year-old linebacker LaRoy Reynolds on a one-year free-agent deal last May.
Reynolds, a 2013 undrafted free-agent signing of the Jacksonville Jaguars, bounced around the league quite a bit before joining San Francisco, primarily serving as a backup and special teams contributor.
In total, the 6-foot-1, 240-pound Reynolds has appeared in 84 games, starting seven of them.
San Francisco has some injury concerns at linebacker this season, namely Kwon Alexander‘s recovery from a 2018 ACL tear and Fred Warner‘s recent knee issue.
