49ers interested in WR Marc Mariani

Try not to wet yourself in excitement.

The Trent Baalke dumpster diving has a new name to consider. ESPN's Paul Gutierrez tweeted that he is hearing the San Francisco 49ers are interested in wide receiver Marc Mariani. Gutierrez said three other teams are interested, including the Oakland Raiders.

Mariani entered the NFL in 2010 as a seventh round draft pick of the Tennessee Titans. He was selected to the Pro Bowl as a return specialist in 2011, but then missed all of 2012 with a broken leg. He signed with the Chicago Bears in late 2014, and stuck with them through 2015.
