49ers sign DT Cedric Thornton to active roster

As the San Francisco 49ers began their offseason program today, DT Cedric Thornton was added to the active roster, per Field Yates. His retirement from August is apparently over. In 2017, Thornton appeared in 15 games for the Buffalo BIlls, while starting three. He finished with four QB hits and two sacks. In 2016, Thornton played for the Dallas Cowboys. The prior four years Thornton played with the Philadelphia Eagles.

So, another defensive tackle, huh? Maybe I’m reading too much into this. Thornton is more than likely a camp body.
