The 49ers re-signed nose tackle D.J. Jones while also inking Zach Kerr the same day. But both could be an excellent rotational tandem entering 2021.

The San Francisco 49ers offered new contracts to two nose tackles on the very same day, March 23, not long after NFL free agency kicked off the start of the 2021 league new year.

The two players? Returning defensive tackle D.J. Jones and journeyman nose tackle Zach Kerr.

It was kind of interesting the Niners did this.
