The 49ers announced they’ve re-signed linebacker Marcelino McCrary-Ball to a standard one-year contract. This is the portion of the offseason where we’ll see a handful of reserve/future deals handed out, in addition to the players that finished the season on the practice squad.
McCrary-Ball was an undrafted free agent out of Indiana. He turns 24 this March. The 49ers trend has been to draft former safeties and transition them to linebacker. McCrary-Ball, at 214 pounds, is no different. He actually played cornerback with the Hoosiers.
During his Pro Day, McCrary-Ball ran a 4.51 40-yard dash with a 35” vertical and a 121” broad jump.
