49ers to work out Nate Boyer, 34-year old long snapper draft prospect

The San Francisco 49ers are spending a pre-draft visit on a 34-year old long snapper. He's got quite a story.

The San Francisco 49ers have 30 pre-draft visits, and they are getting creative with them. The team is set to put long snapper Nate Boyer through a workout. Boyer confirmed that news during a Tuesday interview on SiriusXM NFL radio.

The 49ers have a long snapper in the form of Kyle Nelson. He replaced Kevin McDermott who had previously unseated long-time long snapper Brian Jennings. Nelson put together a solid enough season in 2014, but the team frequently brings in competition for the long snapper role.
