The San Francisco 49ers shook up their special teams on Thursday, releasing long snapper Taybor Pepper after five seasons with the team.
Well, they could move quickly to find a replacement, as KRPC’s Aaron Wilson reported that the 49ers have ‘legitimate interest’ in former Houston Texans long snapper Jon Weeks to fill their recently-created hole.
Update: The 49ers signed Weeks to a one-year, $1.422 million deal. He will earn $200,000 in guaranteed money.
Weeks, a 15-year pro, has spent his entire career with the Texans but is a free agent this offseason.
