The 49ers have added a wide receiver on the even of their opener.
The San Francisco 49ers made a roster move on the eve of Monday Night Football. The team promoted wide receiver Chris Harper from the practice squad to the 53-man roster. They made room for Harper by releasing running back DuJuan Harris.
The 49ers signed Harper to their 10-man practice squad last week. The Cal product spent the preseason with the Patriots before being released. He opened the 2015 season on the Patriots practice squad before being promoted to the 53-man roster where he appeared in five games and registered one reception for six yards.
